Warnemünde Lighthouse

The 36-meter lighthouse, erected at the end of the 19th century, is now fully automated. In addition to signal functions, it is also a popular vantage point. Today's building was erected in a place where a wooden scaffolding was erected already in the 14th century, on which a metal basket with burning coal was pulled at night. Each year a large lighthouse show with laser light and music is celebrated on New Year's Day. The event is called "Lighthouse in Flames", and attracts around 10,000 people.
