Penedo da Saudade Lighthouse

Penedo da Saudade Lighthouse, Maritime lighthouse in Marinha Grande, Portugal.

Penedo da Saudade Lighthouse is a white quadrangular tower standing on the coast of Marinha Grande. The structure rises from its clifftop location and commands views across the Atlantic coastline.

The lighthouse started operations in 1912 and used an oil-powered system to guide ships along the coast. It later lost its navigational role when another lighthouse took over the task.

The lighthouse has long served as a landmark for local seafarers and still defines how people see the coastline today. Those from the region connect it to their maritime past and their relationship with the sea.

The site is accessible from outside and invites exploration of its structure. Parking facilities nearby accommodate visitors who want to see the lighthouse.

The lighthouse operated for only about nine years before its function was transferred to another station. This brief working life makes it a distinctive piece of local maritime history.
