Utsira Lighthouse, Lighthouse and cultural property in Utsira, Norway.

The cylindrical brick tower of Utsira Lighthouse extends 13 meters high and features a red exterior with white decorative elements along its structure.

The establishment of Utsira Lighthouse in 1844 marked the beginning of continuous maritime navigation assistance for vessels traversing the Norwegian coastal waters.

Since 1867, Utsira Lighthouse has maintained a weather observation station, contributing essential meteorological data to Norway's scientific research and maritime safety.

The lighthouse provides accommodations in former keeper's quarters and maintains regular visiting hours throughout all four seasons of the year.
