Ōno Lighthouse

The square pillar lighthouse reaches 26.40 meters in height with white concrete construction and emits white light visible from 31 kilometers away.

The original wooden light pole from 1878 was privately funded by shipowner Asakan Shichi before the current concrete structure began operating in 1934.

The lighthouse forms part of the distinguished collection of 50 Lighthouses in Japan, representing the maritime heritage of the Ishikawa Prefecture region.

The lighthouse interior opens exclusively during designated events, while the exterior remains accessible throughout the year for photography and observation.

The light pattern follows a specific sequence, emitting white flashes every 10 seconds across an arc ranging from 36 to 216 degrees.
