 lighthouse, interesting place

Actual working lighthouse.
1896 (station established 1835). Active; focal plane 80 m (262 ft); white light, 3 s on, 3 s off, with much more intense light along the range line. 40 m (131 ft) round stone tower with lantern and gallery. Upper 1/3 of lighthouse painted black, lower 2/3 white. Despite its conspicuous urban location, this substantial and historic lighthouse doesn't seem to be as well known as many of the coastal Estonian lighthouses. Located about 1100 m (0.7 mi) southeast of the front light; visible from the St. Petersburg highway (E-20). Site open, tower closed.
