About

Located on the edge of Warnemünde’s famous beach, the Warnemünde Lighthouse stands as a beacon of maritime history and a beloved landmark for visitors. The white tower, topped with a copper dome, has guided ships through the Baltic Sea since 1886 and offers panoramic views of sea, city, and dunes. Guided tours are available, and the tower’s guided sound‑scape provides context on its lighting system and construction. The lighthouse combines heritage with modernity: its brick walls, the historic lens, and a newly installed audio‑tour rent turn it into an engaging cultural experience. Whether you climb the 135 steps to the lantern room or simply stroll around the base, the visit highlights the romance of a classic Baltic lighthouse amid panoramic seascape.
