Simpnäs Club

The Lighthouse that Replaced a Beacon

Simpnäsklubb was built in 1943 on the site of one of three beacons erected in 1768 — the same construction that gave Arholma its beacon. The old beacon is gone; the lighthouse remains.

The tower is 16.5 meters tall and the light sits 20 meters above sea level, making Simpnäsklubb the brightest of Roslagen's 20th-century lighthouses outside the four old lighthouse sites.

Construction year, height and light height are from Wikidata. The comparisons apply to the fifteen lighthouses included in this guide.
