Eeragh Lighthouse, Maritime navigation landmark on Rock Island, Aran Islands, Ireland.
The white tower with black bands reaches 31 meters in height and emits light signals visible from 18 nautical miles at sea.
The lighthouse construction began in 1853 under George Halpin Junior's design, with Daniel Crowe & Sons managing the work until completion in 1857.
The structure holds registration number 30411027 in the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage, representing Ireland's maritime navigation history.
Access to the lighthouse requires boat transportation, with local services operating from Galway Bay during appropriate weather conditions.
The lighthouse transitioned through three power sources: thermomechanical generation in 1978, wind power in 1983, and solar energy in 2006.
