Itinerary description
The Tahkuna Lighthouse, situated on the north end of Hiiumaa, on the Tahkuna peninsula, is a cast iron lighthouse which underwent construction in 1873. Assembled of cast iron parts, the so-called Gordon system, it was built with prefabricated details.
The lighthouse is open in the summer season, but one can go and admire it from the outside throughout the year. You can walk around and take in the breathtaking views to the sea, to the lighthouse and Tahkuna peninsula. There are two information boards.
