    Beacon at the strongest tidal current in the world.

    The lighthouse was put into operation in 1904.
    A small metal tower with three glass panes, inside which an oil burner burned with an open flame. The lamp housing was made of brass and diffusers were made of
    clear glass. The lighthouse included a copper kerosene tank with sufficient contents for seven days.


    Initially, the lighthouse was probably operated by Captain Konrad Jakobsen, who lived nearby.
    Since an accident at sea, he had a wooden leg and could only walk with crutches.
