Tjärven

Lighthouse in the Roslagen archipelago. Light characteristic Oc.

Light a November Day 1903

Tjärven was built in 1902 and lit on November 1st the following year — one of few dates in Roslagen's lighthouse history that can be established to the exact day. The lighthouse stands alone on a skerry in the outer archipelago north of Furusund.

The tower is 14 meters high and the light sits 18.5 meters above sea level.

Build year, height and light height come from Wikidata. The comparisons apply to the fifteen lighthouses found in this guide.
