Seilinriutta

Seilinriutta is a concrete lighthouse in the Archipelago Sea that helps ships navigate through Finnish waters with light signals. The structure stands as a maritime navigation aid serving vessels traveling in the Baltic region.

The lighthouse was built in 1909 by Karl R. Pettersson as a critical navigation point between Pargas and Nagu. It represents early maritime infrastructure development in the Finnish archipelago region.

The lighthouse represents Finnish maritime engineering excellence, incorporating sector light technology to assist ships traversing the Baltic Sea waterways.

The lighthouse sits in the open archipelago landscape and is visible from certain vantage points in the region. Reaching the site typically requires traveling by water or boat access through the local waterways.

The lighthouse is known by two names: Seilinriutta in Finnish and Ingenjor Pettersson, reflecting the region's linguistic heritage. This dual naming shows the cultural mix of the archipelago area.
