    Lodbjerg Fyr was created by the French architect Henry Lepaule. It was built from Swedish granite stone in 1883 and is 35 m high. Exactly after 133 steps you can enjoy the all-round view of the country and the North Sea. It is located in Lodbjerg Klitplantage, an extensive forest and heather area.

      The coffee shop in the lighthouse is highly recommended - very cozy (as with grandma in the good room) and offers homemade cakes, muffins and very delicious coffee (also for refills)

        Fantastic lighthouse with a small café and museum.
        Invites you to take a short break and enjoy a breathtaking view of the landscape.
        A stroll through the museum is also worth seeing.

          Lodbjerg Lighthouse is a so-called navigation light, which with its powerful light made it easier for ships to identify land and navigate coastal waters. Lodbjerg Lighthouse is still in operation and emits two white flashing lights every 20 seconds. From the top of the lighthouse, there is a wide view over the heath and the sea.

          The listed lighthouse complex consists of the lighthouse itself and two parallel buildings connected to it, which served as apartments for the lighthouse staff. The lighthouse keeper and two assistants lived here with their families, and since it was a long way to the nearest neighbor, they formed a small, secluded community. While in 1883 the area was still treeless, today the dune forest offers the lighthouse garden very good protection from the wind.

          The lighthouse is open to visitors during the day. At the entrance, a panel exhibition provides information about the history of the lighthouse and the surrounding area. Next to the lighthouse there is a simple camp site with a shelter where you can lie in your sleeping bag at night and experience the flashing lighthouse.

              Beautiful lighthouse, you can take a short break there. Climb up the tower or eat a delicious cake or ice cream in the café downstairs. The cycle path leads almost directly there, you have to make a small detour of maybe 500 m.

                In the middle of Denmark's largest wilderness - Thy National Park - lies Lodbjerg Lighthouse.

                The lighthouse was built in 1883 from granite blocks from Bohus in Sweden and is located on a 13 meter high moraine hill. The lighthouse itself is 35 meters high and a bit crooked from when they tried to dig a tunnel from the lighthouse to a bunker at the back of the lighthouse during World War II.

                The blinking can be seen 35 km away on the North Sea
