About Tomis Southeast Breakwater Lighthouse
Also known as: #Tomis Southeast Breakwater
This cylindrical cast iron tower, standing 8.5 meters tall and painted red, was situated at the end of Tomis harbor's southeast breakwater. Supported by five iron posts, it featured a lantern and gallery. The light emitted a red flash every three seconds, visible for 10.4 nautical miles. The original structure has been replaced by a light on a red mast. The site is open to visitors, offering views of the harbor, but the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: This light served to warn vessels of the physical end of the southeast breakwater, ensuring safe entry into Tomis harbor.
