Kullens Fyr

Top choice in ³§°ìÃ¥²Ô±ð


It's worth a visit to what's arguably Scandinavia’s oldest lighthouse (there's been a light of some kind here for more than 1000 years) on the Kullaberg Peninsula, if only to appreciate its dramatic clifftop position. The lighthouse remains a crucial navigational beacon in heavily trafficked waters – its 1000-watt beam is visible for 27 nautical miles.
