About "Rubjerg Knude lighthouse"

About the artwork

Rubjerg Knude Fyr (fyr=lighthouse) is a lighthouse near Lønstrup in Jutland, Denmark. Construction of this imposing lighthouse began in 1899. At 60 metres above sea level and at least 200 metres inland, Rubjerg Knude Fyr was commissioned on 27 December and taken out of service again on 1 August 1968. The lighthouse served as a beacon for Danish sea vessels and one could see the light at least 42 kilometres from the coast. Like all lighthouses, the light pointed ships ashore. Until 2002, it was used as a museum until the lighthouse was abandoned due to increasing erosion. The building had to cope with the force of nature along the Danish coast. The lighthouse was expected to disappear into the sea in 2023 but people wanted to protect this unique piece of history. Therefore, on 22 October 2019, the 720-tonne tower was placed 70 metres inland. This was done on a specially made rail. The cost of moving it cost 5 million Danish Kroner (0.45 million euros). The tower is now expected to be safe until 2060. When it was built, the lighthouse stood 200 metres inland and by 2019 it was only 3.5 metres.
