Juminda Lighthouse

Juminda Lighthouse

At the northern tip of the Juminda peninsula in Lahemaa National Park stands a round concrete lighthouse built in 1937, with a double gallery and lantern. For almost seventy years it was 24 metres tall; in 2006 the red section at the top was added, giving the tower its present white-and-red look. Its light flashes in a pattern of two long beams followed by darkness out across the Gulf of Finland, three seconds on, two off, three on, then seven seconds of dark.

Eesti keeles

Lahemaa rahvuspargis Juminda poolsaare põhjatipus seisab 1937. aastal ehitatud ümmargune betoonist tuletorn topeltrõdu ja laternaruumiga. Ligi seitsekümmend aastat oli see 24 meetrit kõrge, 2006. aastal lisati tippu punane osa ja torn sai praeguse valge-punase ilme. Selle tuli vilgub üle Soome lahe kindlas rütmis: kolm sekundit valgust, kaks pimedat, taas kolm valgust ja siis seitse sekundit pimedust.
