The "Old Lighthouse" – a lighthouse dating back to 1822, still in operation today, underwent two significant modernizations in 1910 and 1978. The "New Lighthouse" – launched in 1875 and operated concurrently with the Rozewo "Old Lighthouse" until 1910. It was decommissioned in 1910 after the "old" lighthouse was modernized, equipped with electric light with unique lighting characteristics. (Source: Wikipedia)

Nice to reach by bike or on foot - but lots of tourists taking pictures of it 🤭

Next to the Cross there is a covered place at the Mevo Bike Station no. WLA 001 and a bike path to the left to Hel and to the right to Puck. The route from Jastrzębia Góra to Władysławowo is easy and the only inconvenience is the roots of roadside trees on some sections, which have "raised" the asphalt on the bike path a bit.

The Fishermen's Cross. The cross was erected in 1970 on the site of a wooden cross with a very interesting history. The original wooden cross was in a meadow by the path to the beach, where the Transocean buildings used to be, and it was not the first. As Leon Golla recalled, there was a cross with the date 1882 cut out there. It was erected by the carpenter Bolda. Fishermen returning from fishing would stop by the cross to divide the caught fish. This was done by spreading the catch in the meadow into as many heaps as there were crew members. One of the fishermen would turn his back, another would ask: "whose is this?" Turning his back, he would say the name of the fisherman, and in this extremely fair and simple way, the catch was divided. If the catch was poor, one fisherman would take the fish, and at the end of the month he would return the favor to his colleagues in the inn. The money for the current cross was collected among individual fishermen by Mr. Józef Labudda. He also donated an anchor from his cutter WŁA-75. The entire text is placed on a commemorative plaque placed on the cross by the Szotland Development Association. https://www.facebook.com/szotland/mentions?locale=pl_PL

The castle is worth seeing. The history of the Krockow family is well researched and presented in a very interesting and detailed way. There are nice rest areas on the way there.
