Lighthouse
Lågskär Lighthouse is an automated lighthouse located on the north side of Lågskär, one of Finland's Åland in the Sea of Åland of the Baltic.[2] It is the only striking feature on Lågskär on the generally uninhabited island.
The 23-metre (75 ft) lighthouse is designed as a concrete tower, square in shape, with a lantern and gallery. The lens has a focal plane of 42 metres (138 ft) with white light flashing every 12 seconds. The light has run on wind power since 1986. While the ground floor of the site is open, the tower itself is closed. It is maintained by the Finnish Maritime Administration, and the buildings are often let out to ornithologists studying on the island.
