Þrídrangaviti

Beautiful Lighthouses

Perched dramatically on a rugged sea-stack in the North Atlantic, this fascinating lighthouse offers a breathtaking testament to human ingenuity and resilience. Accessible only by helicopter, its construction in 1939 reportedly took place over mere months, leading to its nickname as the "impossible lighthouse." Nestled amidst the crashing waves and gusty winds, it stands defiantly 34 metres above sea level. True to its isolated setting, it provides a vital navigational aid to seafarers while embodying a sense of mystery and marvel for those who hear of its remote existence. Its stark, solitary silhouette against the vastness of the ocean is truly a sight to behold.
