Odderøya Lighthouse

About

Odderøya Lighthouse (Odderøya fyr) is a coastal lighthouse located on the southwestern coast of the island of Odderøya in Kristiansand Municipality in Agder county, Norway. The lighthouse was first built in 1832. The lighouse was replaced in 1874. That second lighthouse was deactivated in 1984 and a new, automated lighthouse was built adjacent to the historic one, which is still standing. The second Odderøya Lighthouse is listed and protected by law by the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage.
