About Zingst Lighthouse
Located near the end of the pier at Zinnowitz on Germany's Baltic coast, the Zingst light became operational in 2013. This 14-meter post structure displays a yellow flash every four seconds, with its focal height matching the tower height. Uniquely, the post supports a large, round diving bell. This integrated feature allows public access for experiencing the underwater Baltic Sea environment without immersion. The lighthouse contributes to the waterfront's character and combines navigation with a visitor attraction.
Why it matters: The Zingst light is distinctive for integrating a diving bell, offering visitors an underwater view of the Baltic Sea. This dual-purpose structure serves as a navigational aid for vessels approaching the Zinnowitz pier and as a tourist attraction.
