About Århus Havn Bagfyr Lighthouse
Also known as: Århus Havn Bagfyr (Range Rear)
The Aarhus Havn Bagfyr in Denmark is situated on the steeple of Sankt Johannes Kirke, above the clock. Its green light, showing an isophase characteristic (Iso G 2s), is 73 meters above sea level and has a geographic range of 21.8 nautical miles. This rear range light is positioned 1.1 kilometers northwest of its front light on Peter Sabroes Gade. The church grounds are accessible, but the steeple cannot be entered.
Why it matters: This rear range light functions as a navigation aid for vessels approaching Aarhus Harbor, working in conjunction with its front light to define the channel. Its unique location on a church steeple demonstrates urban maritime infrastructure.
