Juodkrantė Lighthouse, Maritime navigation tower in Juodkrantė, Lithuania.

The white pyramidal skeletal tower rises 20 meters high on the Curonian Spit, featuring a red gallery and prominent daymark visible from the Baltic Sea.

The Lithuanian maritime authority constructed the lighthouse in 1950, positioning it 900 meters from the coastline to guide vessels through the Baltic waters.

The lighthouse represents one of seven Lithuanian maritime beacons that maintain the seafaring traditions along the Baltic coast of the Curonian Spit.

The lighthouse emits white light flashes visible up to 17 nautical miles, with a three-second illumination followed by a five-second pause.

Located on the Hills of Witches, the lighthouse structure reaches a focal height of 68 meters, making it visible across substantial distances.
