Laidunina Lighthouse

Laidunina Lighthouse

On the tip of the Kahtla peninsula in Laimjala, Saaremaa, a brick lighthouse on a one-storey hexagonal stone base was built in 1907. Its working life was short: in 1924 the light was switched off and the lantern removed, and its lighting equipment was moved to the Kübassaare lighthouse further along the coast. The headless tower still stands by the shore and has been a listed cultural monument since 2005.

Eesti keeles

Saaremaal Laimjalas Kahtla poolsaare tipus ehitati 1907. aastal kuusnurksele ühekorruselisele kivialusele telliskivist tuletorn. Selle tööiga jäi lühikeseks: 1924. aastal tuli kustutati, laternaruum võeti maha ja valgustusseadmed viidi üle rannikul edasi asuvasse Kübassaare tuletorni. Laternata torn seisab ikka kaldal ja on alates 2005. aastast kultuurimälestis.
