The Staberhuk lighthouse is in the southeast of the island of Fehmarn , a few kilometers east of the Fehmarnsund Bridge . Together with the Flügge lighthouse, it marks the route in Fehmarnsund .

description

In 1903 work began on the sturdy tower, which is made of yellow bricks and carries a red lantern. A keeper's house was also built from yellow stones next to the tower. The massive construction of the tower was necessary because of the planned technical equipment: After its completion, it carried the cast iron lantern of the old lighthouse of Heligoland . The construction is 2.5 m high, it was brought from Heligoland to Fehmarn and mounted on the tower.

In the course of time, the weather particularly attacked the west side of the tower. On this side the yellow bricks were exchanged for red bricks. This characteristic is unique worldwide.

Nautical

The Staberhuk beacon is the responsibility of the Lübeck Waterways and Shipping Office and is remotely monitored by the traffic control center in Travemünde . The identifier Ubr. Grp. 2 white and green = (1) + 3 + (1) + 11 = 16 s is generated by a circumferential cover.

technology

The tower is equipped with the original belt lens (built in 1870) from the English lighthouse on Heligoland, which was dismantled in 1902. It has a height of 2.41 m and a focal length of 925 mm. A HQJ-T-400-W halogen discharge lamp is used, which generates a brightness of 115680 cd and has a nominal range of approx. 19 nm. An emergency power generator is available in the event of a power failure.
