About the artwork

The Ameland Lighthouse

Description
The lighthouse was built in 1881, commissioned by King Willem III. The tower was designed by Quirinus Harder and was built by foundry Nering Bögel in Deventer. The individual segments were shipped to Ameland and assembled on site. The lighthouse is 55.3 metres high and has 15 floors. The stairs to the top have 236 steps, excluding the steps to the top.

After World War II, a very weak emergency optic was temporarily placed on the tower. This gave the tower the name twilight lamp. In 1952, this was replaced by optics from the former Westhoofd lighthouse near Ouddorp. This light has a strength of 4,400,000 candela.

In 1988, the old light house was replaced by a new one to carry a radar antenna. This old light house currently stands on the roof of Maritime Centre Abraham Fock in Hollum.

The lighthouse has been a national monument since 1982. Until 2005, the lighthouse was also used by the coast guard. Ownership of the lighthouse was then transferred to the municipality of Ameland, with the rooms being used as a museum.[3]

About 80 metres south-east of the base of the tower are the former lighthouse keeper's houses.
