About Århus Østhavn Bagfyr Lighthouse
The Århus Østhavn Bagfyr is a square skeletal steel mast with a gallery, standing 23 meters tall and painted with red and white horizontal bands. Its light is positioned 26 meters above sea level and emits an isophase white flash every 2 seconds, visible for 14.5 nautical miles. This rear range light serves the Aarhus East Harbour, working in tandem with a front light to guide vessels. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed. It is located near the port of Arhus.
Why it matters: This rear range light is indispensable for guiding large cargo vessels and ferries into Aarhus East Harbour, ensuring safe passage and preventing groundings or collisions.
