The story of one of the symbols of Licata
Let's dispel a myth right away.
The one in Licata is not, officially, the third tallest lighthouse in Italy.
Its 40 meters of height are in fact surpassed by Genoa (77 metres), the Punta Penna lighthouse (70 metres) and the Vittoria lighthouse in Trieste (68 metres).
The one in Licata however remains one of the highest in Europe, given that it is one of the few whose base is at sea level; in fact, many lighthouses were built on high ground in order to increase their "power".
