Torre del Mar Lighthouse

The lighthouse in Torre del Mar, located directly on the Mediterranean coast in southern Spain, in Andalusia in the Axarquia. Malaga is only about 30 km away...

This lighthouse is simply very nice to look at because it is not made of natural stone or white like all the others.

In the sixties of the 20th century, due to the great urban development of the city, a new lighthouse was built to replace the previous one. First, a small rectangular ashlar tower was built next to a house similar to the old lighthouse. However, in 1976, during the construction of the Paseo Marítimo, a new lighthouse was erected next to the old one. This new lighthouse is a large cylindrical tower almost thirty meters high, which has become a landmark in the urban landscape of Torre del Mar.
