Trieste lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse at Port of Trieste, Italy.
The white stone lighthouse reaches 31 meters in height with a round tower, lantern, and gallery rising from a circular two-story structure.
Built in 1833 on Molo Fratelli Bandiera, this lighthouse replaced a previous structure that required 25 years of construction under Empress Maria Theresa.
The structure represents the last remaining Austrian lighthouse in Italy, marking the northwestern end of the Adriatic Sea for maritime navigation.
Although no longer operational since 1969, the structure displays decorative lights at night in red, white, and green colors of the Italian flag.
The lighthouse stands on the exact location where an ancient Roman navigation beacon guided ships entering the port centuries ago.
