The Rt Oštro Lighthouse, located near Kraljevica, Croatia, also historically known as Porto Re, was built in 1872. This cylindrical masonry tower stands 15 meters tall and is painted with red and white horizontal bands. Its light characteristic was an isophase white light on a 6-second cycle, visible for 11.9 nautical miles. The lighthouse structure features a round cylindrical masonry tower with a lantern and gallery that rises through the center of a one-story keeper's house. The tower itself is 15 meters high.
