Kullens Fyr is the brightest lighthouse in Scandinavia and stands 78.5 meters above sea level at the very tip of the Kullaberg Nature Reserve near Mölle.

Beacons have been operating at the northern entrance to the Öresund, one of the busiest waterways in the world, for over 1,000 years.

The current lighthouse was designed in 1898 by the architect Magnus Dahlander from Dalarna. The 15-meter-high Kullens Fyr is made of gneiss and bricks and was put into operation in 1900. The three large lenses of the light apparatus rotate four times a minute and emit three light signals per revolution.

The light signals can be seen from 50 kilometers away.

The lens apparatus must also rotate during the day (unlit), otherwise there is a risk that the lenses will act like large magnifying glasses and the incoming sunlight will cause fires.
