Tahkuna Lighthouse, situated on the north end of Hiiumaa, is a cast-iron lighthouse which's construction started in 1873. Assembled of cast iron parts, utilising the so-called Gordon system, it was created with prefabricated details. The details were easy to transport, making this tall tower rather easy to build.

• The lighthouse was bought from the world exhibition of Paris in 1871 by Czarist Russia

• It is Estonia's tallest lighthouse - 42.7 m above sea level

Love it

All those Lighthouses are so extraordinary and one can feel the history. They could improve the little shop next to Lighthouse. Not so wide range of items and not helping to introduce the Lighthouse.
