About Kemin Kirkko Lighthouse
Also known as: Kemin Kirkko (Kemi Church) (Mansikkanokka Range Rear)
Constructed in 1928, Kemin Kirkko is a skeletal tower reaching 25 meters in height, with its light source positioned at 41 meters. The light emits a red signal, flashing once every 3 seconds. The physical structure consists of a triangular skeletal framework supporting a prominent red daymark distinguished by a yellow vertical stripe. Located 0.5 kilometers from the Kemi ANCH port, the site is open for visitors, though the tower itself is not.
Why it matters: The red flashing light from Kemin Kirkko functions as a primary navigation aid for vessels entering or departing Kemi's port. It works in conjunction with a front range light to facilitate accurate passage within the coastal vicinity.
