Store Færder Lighthouse

Store Færder Lighthouse (Norwegian: Færder fyr) is a former coastal lighthouse in the municipality of Tjøme in Vestfold, Norway. The lighthouse was located on the island of Store Færder, first lit in 1696. From the start the light was simply an iron pot placed on the ground. Later a stone tower was built, finished in 1802. A lens was installed in 1852. In 1857 the lighthouse was replaced by the new Færder Lighthouse on Tristein. The stone tower at Store Færder is now in ruins. The ruins along with the other station buildings are listed as a protected site.
