Leuchtturm Lauterbach, Maritime navigation lighthouse in Lauterbach harbor, Putbus, Germany

The round cast-iron lighthouse stands 6 meters tall with a white shaft and red conical roof at the entrance of Lauterbach harbor.

Julius Pintsch manufactured the lighthouse in 1904, and it started operating as Leuchtturm Ranzow on April 1, 1905, at Rügen's Jasmund peninsula north coast.

The lighthouse forms part of the modernized Lauterbach harbor complex, representing the maritime heritage of Germany's largest island, Rügen.

The lighthouse guides vessels through the narrow harbor entrance with a range of 3 nautical miles, displaying white, green, and red navigation lights.

After renovation on Dänholm island in 2002, the lighthouse was relocated to Lauterbach harbor in 2021 and placed on new granite stone foundation.
