Molenfeuer Sassnitz, Lighthouse in Sassnitz, Germany

The eastern lighthouse features a green exterior with a white horizontal band, while the western lighthouse displays a red finish with X-shaped steel supports.

The original lighthouse from 1901 was replaced in 1937 with an octagonal steel tower following the extension of the harbor mole.

The lighthouse represents maritime navigation heritage and holds protected status as an architectural monument in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

The lighthouse stands 12 meters high and contains navigation lights positioned at 15 meters above sea level to guide vessels entering the harbor.

A red light sector points northeast to alert ships about the proximity of Rügen's chalk cliffs during harbor approaches.
