About Rødbergsneset Lighthouse

This 5-meter tall structure, operational until late 2020, once guided vessels into the small boat harbor of Rødberg. It featured a green occulting light visible for 10 nautical miles from a focal height of 11 meters. The tower itself is a square platform supported by black piles, with the lantern structure painted white and topped with a red roof. Located in Indre Fosen, within the Trøndelag region of Norway, the site is accessible to the public, although the tower remains closed. The nearest port is Rissa, 5.3 kilometers away.

Why it matters: The light was essential for small craft navigating the Rødberg boat harbor, marking the end of the mole and ensuring safe access for local fishing and recreational boats.
