    On Schiermonnikoog you will find two lighthouses, one red and one white. The red lighthouse that stands in front of you and can be seen from afar is the Noordertoren. It is the only lighthouse on the island still in operation. In fact, it is still manned 24 hours a day!

        The Noordertoren was built from brick and stone between 1853 and 1854; it is 37 meters high, giving the lighthouse a height of 44 meters above sea level.
        The Noordertoren can be seen from many points on the island, even from the mainland.
