Góra Szwedów Lighthouse, Baltic Sea lighthouse in Hel, Poland.
The Góra Szwedów Lighthouse features a square steel skeletal tower reaching 17 meters in height, supported by a reinforced concrete foundation.
Built in 1936 to replace the Jastarnia Bór Lighthouse, this navigation structure operated continuously until its deactivation in 1990.
The lighthouse stands as a testament to Polish maritime navigation history, positioned between the Jastarnia and Hel lighthouses on the Baltic coast.
Located at coordinates 54°37′35.5″N and 18°49′09.8″E, the structure provided a light range of 14 nautical miles with an Iso W 30s pattern.
The lighthouse sits atop Swedish Hill, rising 19 meters above sea level, making it a reference point for ships navigating the Baltic Sea.
