Saudanes lighthouse

Region: North Iceland
Coordinates: 66.1512978° N 18.911006° W

Saudanes lighthouse was built in the years 1933-1934 and in 1934 the sound lighthouse was also put into use, but it emitted three sound signals in fog and dark weather. The sound lighthouse was taken out of service in 1992. The lighthouses were in two towers; the sound lighthouse in the lower and the lighthouse in the higher.
