Dueodde Lighthouse, Maritime tower in Dueodde, Denmark
Dueodde Lighthouse is a 47-meter tall white navigational structure with a blue gallery and gray lantern located at the southern tip of Bornholm island. The building features a sleek cylindrical shaft that tapers at the top and supports a small observation platform offering views of the surrounding seascape.
The lighthouse was built between 1960 and 1962 as a modern navigational structure using advanced engineering techniques for its era. The project involved complex foundation work with reinforced concrete pilings to anchor the tower securely on the sandy coastal terrain.
The lighthouse serves as a vital navigation aid for ships crossing the Baltic Sea and shapes the maritime identity of Bornholm's southern coast. Its distinctive white tower with the blue gallery has become a recognizable landmark for local fishermen and sailors who depend on its guidance.
Visitors can climb a set of 197 steps to reach the observation platform and enjoy views of the southern coastline and open sea. Sturdy footwear is recommended for the ascent, and access is available only during specific times when the tower is open to the public.
The foundation rests on reinforced concrete pilings driven 14 meters deep, installed over two winter seasons using Baltic Sea water delivered through a specialized pipeline. This unusual construction method was necessary to ensure stability on the marshy sandy subsoil of the southern coast.
