The Breskens lighthouse from 1868 is the oldest surviving cast iron lighthouse in the Netherlands and one of the most iconic buildings in West Zeelandic Flanders. This octagonal, black and white painted tower was built in 1866-1867 to a design by the Dutch architect Quirinus Harder.

Schmucker, small lighthouse near Breskens directly on the Panoramaweg. The tower can also be visited from the inside for a small fee. Of course, the view from the top is best :-)
Also of interest for GeoCacher ;-)
Enjoy nature!
