Kalbådagrund lighthouse, Caisson lighthouse in Porvoo, Finland.
The Kalbådagrund lighthouse features red and white horizontal bands and rises 27 meters above the sea level on a concrete foundation.
Built in 1952 at Suomenlinna shipyard, this structure replaced a lightship station and became Finland's first caisson lighthouse in the Gulf of Finland.
The lighthouse represents maritime engineering developments of the 1950s, marking a transition from traditional lightships to permanent concrete structures.
The structure includes three galleries, keeper's quarters, and a helicopter landing pad added in 1977 for maintenance access.
The concrete caisson foundation extends 10 meters below water, supporting the lighthouse on a dangerous shoal 12 kilometers from the shore.
