About Østmarktangen Lighthouse
Also known as: Østmarktangen (Korsvika)
This square skeletal tower, clad in white siding and topped with a red lantern roof, stands 5 meters tall with a focal height of 13 meters. Located on a promontory northeast of downtown Trondheim, it marks the entrance to the Strindfjord from the Trondheimfjord. The lighthouse emits an occulting white, red, and green light, with two flashes every 8 seconds. Its geographic range is 11.3 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is indispensable for maritime safety, guiding vessels into the Strindfjord from the broader Trondheimfjord. Its directional light provides precise information for navigating the fjord's entrance, preventing groundings and ensuring smooth passage.
