Bicentennial Lighthouse, Modern lighthouse in Sarmiento Park, Córdoba, Argentina
The Bicentennial Lighthouse reaches a height of 102 meters and features a concrete structure with a partial helix design twisting ninety degrees.
Architect Alejandro Cohen designed this monument in 2011 to commemorate the bicentennial anniversary of Argentine independence with a cost of nine million pesos.
The structure functions as an architectural symbol of Córdoba, incorporating exhibition spaces and an auditorium at its base spanning 1,500 square meters.
