Skagsudde lighthouse, Maritime beacon in Grundsunda district, Sweden
Skagsudde lighthouse is a white cylindrical tower in Grundsunda district standing about 14 meters tall, with a viewing platform and lantern crowning its top. It sits beside a two-story house that once served as the keeper's residence.
It was built in 1909 to improve navigation for ships moving through the region's waters and growing commercial routes. The establishment addressed increasing maritime traffic that required better safety measures in the area.
The lighthouse has served as a lasting reference point for local fishermen and sailors navigating these waters, becoming a symbol of the region's maritime identity. Its presence continues to shape how the coast is understood and valued by the community.
The lighthouse operates fully automatically today and no longer requires a resident keeper to maintain it. Visitors should be aware that the site is remote and requires traveling by car or boat to reach it.
The lighthouse runs on solar cell power, making it one of the early examples of sustainable energy use at a Swedish lighthouse. This technical solution allows it to operate independently with minimal maintenance needs.
