Hållö lighthouse, Maritime beacon on Hållö Island, Sweden.

The cylindrical tower of Hållö lighthouse rises 32 meters above sea level, featuring a white-painted stone base and red cast iron watch room.

Built in 1842 and heightened in 1868, the lighthouse has guided vessels through the challenging waters of the Kattegat for over 175 years.

The lighthouse maintains its original purpose while hosting cultural events, including special ceremonies during International Lighthouse Weekend each August.

Visitors reach the lighthouse via ferry services from Smögen, with guided tours available through the Hållö Lighthouse Association during summer months.

The lighthouse beam extends 17 nautical miles across the water, producing a distinctive white flash every 12 seconds to assist maritime navigation.
