Kihnu Lighthouse

Built in England in 1864 and made of cast iron, Kihnu Lighthouse is one of the most unique and important lighthouses in Estonia! The tower has an interesting history – it was once the only means of communication with the mainland.

The lighthouse is located on the southern tip of Kihnu Island and is one of four surviving cast-iron lighthouses on the Estonian coast. The tower is equipped with a lantern room and a balcony and is 29 meters above sea level. The shed next to the tower sells local handicrafts and sweets.

From the top of the lighthouse, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the sea and the landscape of Kihnu!

Come and discover Kihnu Island and its lighthouse!
