Henichesk Lighthouse, Maritime navigational structure in Henichesk, Ukraine.
The white lighthouse stands 18 meters tall at the mouth of the Utliutskyi Estuary, featuring a two-story building with an attached tower.
French specialists constructed the lighthouse over five years during the 1870s, with operations delayed until 1883 due to the Russian-Turkish conflict.
The structure represents the maritime heritage of Henichesk, a city established in 1784 as a fort following the Russian Empire's expansion.
The lighthouse guides vessels through the Sea of Azov with its white flashing light and radio beacon, installed in 1977 and 1990 respectively.
The lighthouse maintains its original 19th-century architectural elements while incorporating modern navigation technology to assist maritime traffic.
