    THE HISTORY OF THE LIGHTHOUSE

    The waters of the Gdańsk Bay are separated from the Vistula Lagoon by a promontory with high dunes, mostly covered with coniferous forests. The average height of the spit is 20-25 m. One of the highest places on the spit (a dune about 29 meters high) was located about 500 m northeast of Kahlberg, today's Krynica Morska (until 1958 Łysica). This place was chosen as the location of the lighthouse, which would enable safer night navigation not only in the south-eastern part of the Gdańsk Bay, but also in the waters of the Vistula Lagoon.

    One of the symbols of Krynica Morska - the lighthouse was built in 1951 on the site of the 19th-century structure destroyed in 1945. It has a conical structure with a tower 26.5 meters high. The light of the lighthouse is located at an altitude of 53 m above sea level. and is created thanks to 2 light bulbs with a power of 1000 W. The tower structure is empty inside with stairs attached to the tower walls.
