Tolbukhin Lighthouse on Tolbukhin Island, Maritime lighthouse in Kronstadt, Russia

The Tolbukhin Lighthouse on Tolbukhin Island is a white stone tower standing in the Gulf of Finland, serving as a navigation marker for vessels approaching Kronstadt waters. The structure sits on an artificial island and guides ships with regular light signals through the local passages.

The original structure was built in 1719 as a wooden tower and underwent several reconstructions before the current stone form was completed in 1810. Since then, it has served as one of Russia's oldest continuously operating navigation aids for maritime traffic.

The name honours Colonel Fedot Tolbukhin, who commanded the troops defending Kotlin from the Swedish landing in 1705; the tower was renamed for him in 1736, having first been called Kotlinsky. The Decembrist Nikolai Bestuzhev wrote a romantic essay, "The Tolbukhin Lighthouse", about it. A commemorative stamp was issued in 2019 for its 300th anniversary.

The lighthouse stands on an artificial island in the Gulf of Finland and is difficult to reach from land. Visitors can view and photograph it from Kronstadt, but approaching the island itself requires special boat permission due to its remote location and maritime regulations.

The lighthouse's first wooden tower was finished on 7 August 1719 under Captain Edward Lane, and Peter I sketched the tower himself, adding that the rest was left to the architect. In 2019, for its 300th anniversary, the Russian post issued a commemorative stamp showing the tower.
