Pilsum Lighhouse in Krummhörn, Germany

Pilsum Lighhouse in Krummhörn, Germany 


This beacon in northwestern Germany isn't particularly tall – fair 36 11 meters tall – but its dynamic colours and the for the most part level scene encompassing it make this signal a standout. Beacon fans, particularly those in this range of Lower Saxony bounded by the North Ocean, must truly cherish the see of Pilsum Light, because it hasn't really guided oceanic activity since 1915. Built in 1891 as a division light for a contract ocean channel, its light was turned off amid World War I to dodge making a difference adversary vessels explore the entry. And in spite of the fact that Pilsum was never re-lit taking after the war due to a re-routing of the channel, the structure remains. It draws in guests (numerous snapping pictures) who respect its hefty shape and what looks like a decently new coat of paint.

The Pilsum Beacon was built in 1891 as a segment light for the Ems‌hörn channel on Germany's North Ocean coast. 



It is found on a dyke close the town of Pilsum within the district of Krummhörn. It guided ships through the narrow channel until 1915. Within the To begin with World War its light was quenched so that adversary ships might not navigate the course. After that it was not requiredsince the channel was changed. The tallness of the structure is 11 meters; the stature of the light around ocean level is 15 metersNowadays the tower is one of the best-known images of East Frisia.
