Åsvær Lighthouse

Åsvær Lighthouse (Åsvær fyr) is a coastal lighthouse in Dønna Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. It is located on the island of Åsvær, about 10 km north of the village of Vandve, about 16 km northwest of the island of Dønna, and about 11 km south of the village of Lovund.

The 18.5 m tall lighthouse was first built in 1876. The original lighthouse was replaced in 1919 after a tough winter storm. The new lighthouse was automated in 1980, and it was listed as a protected site in 2000.

The lighthouse includes an 18.5 m tall red, cast iron tower. The light sits on top of the tower at an elevation of 24.5 m above sea level. The 28,800-candela light can be seen for up to 14.2 nmi. The light emits a white, red or green light depending on direction, occulting in groups of two every eight seconds.
