Leuchtturm Falshöft

Falshöft Lighthouse is a lighthouse on the Baltic Sea near Pommerby in the district of Schleswig-Flensburg in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

Built from 1908 to 1909, the lighthouse was put into operation in 1910. It was built from bolted cast iron segments of the Isselburger Hütte, as they were also used in the construction of e.g. the lighthouses Hörnum, Büsum, Westerheversand or Pellworm, on a brick base and is 24.4 m high. The height of the light point is 25 m. As a cross light it marked the shoals of Bredgrund and Kalkgrund and was a leading and orientation light in the entrance of the Flensburg Fjord.

In agreement with the Danish administration, the beacon was decommissioned on March 1, 2002 by the then Lübeck Water and Shipping Authority, as terrestrial navigation in the coastal section with the remaining maritime navigation signs Kegnæs Fyr and Kalkgrund lighthouse is considered to be sufficiently enabled.

The tower was the property of the Geltinger Bay Authority and was initially used only as a wedding room. In the meantime, it can also be visited and climbed. The panoramic view from the observation deck includes not only the immediate surroundings but also the view across the Baltic Sea to the Danish islands of Als and Ærø. Since December 2005, the beacon has been burning again as a dimmed white fixed beacon.

The lighthouse and the adjacent beach section Gammeldamm served several times in the past as a film set for the ZDF early evening series Der Landarzt and Da kommt Kalle.
