Peenemünde lighthouse, Coastal lighthouse in Peenemünde, Germany

The white lighthouse structure rises 11 meters above the Baltic Sea coast, serving as a navigation aid with white, red, and green signals.

The lighthouse began operating in 1954 during the post-war reconstruction period, marking a new era for maritime navigation in northeastern Germany.

The lighthouse stands near the former World War II military research facilities, representing the transformation of Peenemünde from military to civilian purposes.

The lighthouse emits signals every 6 seconds with a range of 9 nautical miles for white light, 6 for red, and 5 for green.

Located at the northeastern tip of Usedom Island, the lighthouse guides vessels through the Peenestrom waters connecting to the Baltic Sea.
