Alte Weser Lighthouse

Commissioned in 1964, switched to automated operation in 1972
The "upside down"-loook of this tower follows the idea that a sleek tower offers less resistance against moving ice-floes. Originally it was designed to offer living quarters for four keepers and additional scientific personnel- hence the spacious upper stories


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Terrific image. I'd love to spend a day and night in this.
