Stora Fjäderägg lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse on Stora Fjäderägg island, Umeå Municipality, Sweden.
The concrete and brick lighthouse rises 13.5 meters above the rocky landscape, featuring white, red, and green signal lights with specific flash patterns.
Built in 1851, the lighthouse underwent height modifications from 6 meters to 12 meters in 1914, reaching its current height of 13.5 meters in 1921.
The lighthouse keeper's residence now functions as a youth hostel, allowing visitors to experience life on this remote Baltic Sea island.
Access requires a ferry ride from Norrfjärden to Holmön, followed by a separate boat journey from Byviken harbor to Stora Fjäderägg island.
The lighthouse grounds include a bird research station where scientists monitor migratory species traveling between Europe, Asia, and Africa.
