Cap d’Artrutx Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse in Ciutadella, Spain.

The lighthouse features a 34-meter cylindrical tower with white and blue stripes, standing at the southwestern point of Menorca island.

Built in 1859 by architect Emili Pou, the structure underwent major modifications in 1969 to increase its height from 17 to 34 meters.

The lighthouse serves as a registered historical site since 2005, representing the maritime heritage of the Balearic Islands navigation system.

Visitors can reach the lighthouse by taking the Cap d'Artrutx road from Ciutadella, passing through Cala Blanca and Santandria neighborhoods.

The lighthouse tower contains buttresses that give it a particular shape, while its light pattern shows three white flashes every 10 seconds.
