Långe Erik, Coastal lighthouse in Byxelkrok, Sweden
The white cylindrical tower of Långe Erik rises 32.1 meters above Stora Grundet island, featuring a grey metallic lantern dome and surrounding buildings.
Built in 1845 by Jonas Jonsson following H. Byström's design, the limestone lighthouse guided ships through Baltic waters with its third-order Fresnel lens.
The Swedish Maritime Administration maintains this governmental listed building, which represents the maritime heritage of northern Öland's coastline.
Visitors can climb the lighthouse tower during summer months by purchasing tickets at the adjacent building connected to the mainland by a bridge.
The lighthouse emits four distinct flashes every 15 seconds, reaching vessels within a range of 13.8 nautical miles across the Baltic Sea.
