Meloria North End Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse in Livorno, Italy.

The cylindrical white concrete tower extends 20 meters into the sky, featuring a lantern and balcony at its summit over the Ligurian Sea.

The lighthouse, constructed in 1958, stands at the northern section of Meloria shoal, marking a location where naval battles occurred in medieval times.

The structure represents the continuation of Italian maritime traditions, operating under Marina Militare management with identification code 1884 E.F.

Solar panels power the lighthouse system, which emits two white flashes every ten seconds, visible from up to 10 nautical miles distance.

Located 7.5 nautical miles from shore, the lighthouse guides vessels through an area that transitions from shallow 2-meter depths to 30-meter waters.
