West Pomerania’s most beautiful lighthouse in the Baltic Sea resort of Niechorze is 145 years old

Lighthouses as dominant landmarks in the landscape have always enjoyed a special fascination. Although their importance for shipping in times of GPS has also decreased significantly, today they are still important and in an emergency even the last aid for navigation. Schinkel had built the well-known lighthouse on Rügen in 1827, a beautiful brick tower which unfortunately was replaced by a concrete tower as a new building and is now only to be used as a monument. Based on his experience Schinkel was commissioned with the planning and construction of the lighthouse in the former seaside resort Hort (now Polish: Niecorze). The realization took place only in 1864, long after Schinkel’s death. The lighthouse was completed in 1866 after only 3 years of construction. Unlike the tower on Rügen the lighthouse is not alone here but is part of a complex of buildings with a beautiful architecture.

A brick building with arched windows, colored shutters in front of the windows, a majestic entrance area with a bow crowned, large windows with 20 fields, dominantly perched on a hill and visible from afar. The lower 20m are a square brick building, then it goes into an octagonal tower, nicely decorated with red bricks in the corners and yellow brick on the sides to the observation deck in about 37m above the then the dome of the lighthouse located. The total height is 45m from the terrain or 63m from the sea level. The building complex originally housed 4 apartments for the lighthouse keeper families and barn.

From the beach you walk once about 90 steps up to the foot of the lighthouse, unless you start at the back with the car. Then you climb in the tower inside a spiral staircase with over 200 steps and then reached the platform with a wonderful view of the Baltic Sea, the place Niechorze and the lake lying behind Liwia Luza, a nature reserve and in Poland known bird sanctuary with some rare species of birds.

The first version of the lantern of the lighthouse was still a rapeseed oil lamp behind a ring plate with 4 openings and an optic which was turned by a clockwork and the tower ensured the special light characteristics. Each lighthouse must have a different light characteristic for unique identification, which was then noted for navigation in the nautical charts. The characteristic of the tower was white light of 10 sec. Duration with 10 sec. Break, the next tower west was the lighthouse of Świnoujście with a continuous light.

During World War II, the spire was unfortunately destroyed by an artillery shell. During the reconstruction, the bright brick segments in the tower were replaced by plaster and an electric light source with a swivel optics from Sweden was replaced.

The lighthouse with the building complex is now a listed building and is still largely in the original, only the old inventory house has been demolished in the meantime because of dilapidated. The building complex has been renovated and refurbished in accordance with the preservation order, as well as lighting technology has improved over the years and the 1000-watt bulb is now electronically controlled and operates around the clock.

The lighthouse can be visited and climbed daily for a small fee and in any weather a popular and definitely worthwhile destination.
