On the top floor, endurance tests for the lamp factory were conducted. The burning lamps could be seen for miles around at night. Therefore, the building was popularly called the "Lichttoren" (Lighthouse). Later, the headquarters of Philips' lighting division was located in the building.
The building is a national monument. The Lichttoren stands next to the Witte Dame (White Lady), which was built later. Since the summer of 2009, the tower has been illuminated with LED lights.
