Bovbjerg Lighthouse, Historic lighthouse in Lemvig Municipality, Denmark
Standing 26 meters tall on a 41-meter cliff, the red brick lighthouse provides visibility for maritime navigation along the North Sea coast.
The lighthouse was constructed in 1876 by architects Niels Sigfred Nebelong and Carl Frederik Grove to reduce shipwrecks off the west coast of Jutland.
Three lighthouse keeper families maintained the building, with E. Rasmussen bringing stories and objects from his travels to share with the local community.
Visitors can climb to the observation platform for coastal views, with entry fees of 25 DKK for adults and 10 DKK for children.
The cliff at Bovbjerg displays visible layers from two different ice ages, making it the only location in Denmark with this geological formation.
