About Talgje Lighthouse
Built in 1904, the Talgje lighthouse stands as a 6-meter structure on four straight piles at the southeastern tip of Talgje island. The piles are painted black, contrasting with the white lantern and red roof. This lighthouse emits an occulting white, red, or green light on a 6-second cycle, providing guidance for vessels in Hillefjord. Located approximately 12 km northeast of Stavanger, it is situated near Breiviga, the closest port at 1.7 km. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: The lighthouse is essential for safe navigation within Hillefjord, warning mariners of the southeastern tip of Talgje island, a critical point approaching Stavanger from the northeast.
