Rinkenæs Fyr or Rinkenis Lighthouse is a small lighthouse ( Danish Fyr ) near Rinkenæs on the Danish side of the Flensburg Fjord .
background
The lighthouse was built in 1896 east of the village of Rinkenæs ( Danish Rinkenis ), directly south of the small town Dalsgård ( Danish Dalsgaard ). After the German-Danish War, the area still belonged to the German Empire . At the end of the 19th century, more and more naval units were relocated to Flensburg. The fjord was used in particular for torpedo boat exercises, so that the torpedo station in Flensburg-Mürwik was ultimately built at the beginning of the 20th century . In 1905 it was decided to relocate German naval units from Kiel to Flensburg and Sønderborg. During the same period, most of the lighthouses on the Flensburg Fjord were built, which is why it is assumed that this development may have played a role in the construction of the lighthouses.
The Rinkenis lighthouse was constructed identically to the Lågemade lighthouse and the Skodsbøl lighthouse . A plate with the inscription "Maschinen-Fabrik N. Jepsen Sohn Flensburg" painted over was attached to the lighthouse door. The machine factory N. Jepsen had its production at Margarethenhof in Flensburg . From 1906, the Holnis lighthouse keeper was given the additional task of observing the neighboring Laagmai and Rinkenis fires. After the referendum in Schleswig in 1920, the lighthouse was handed over to the Danish administration. The original beacon, which consisted of a lens device with a spirit burner, was replaced by an acetone gas lamp in 1921.
The lighthouse provides an underfire . The associated top light of the lighthouse is above the lighthouse, at a distance of about 1 kilometer. The Gendarmstien hiking trail now runs along the lighthouse.
