Skjoldnaes Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse on the southern coast of Funen, Denmark.

The granite lighthouse rises 32 meters above sea level, featuring a characteristic light signal that flashes once every thirty seconds at night.

Swedish stone masons constructed the lighthouse in 1881 to ensure safe maritime navigation between the North Sea and Baltic Sea waterways.

The former lighthouse keeper residence now functions as a clubhouse for Ærø Golf Club, preserving the connection to local maritime heritage.

The lighthouse remains open throughout the day and night, with visitors needing to activate the interior lighting system upon entering after sunset.

Near the lighthouse stands Dronningens Hule, a cavern tied to a legend of a royal wedding that ended in tragedy at sea.
