Two lighthouses right next to each other - the 'New Lighthouse' replaced the 'Schinkel Tower' as an active navigation mark.
164 steps lead up to the viewing platform, from which a fantastic 360° panoramic view over the Wittow peninsula is the reward for bravely climbing the stairs.
The lighthouse is open daily, unless the wind blows too strongly on 'Windland', then the tower is closed for safety reasons.
Nevertheless, you don't have to do without the panoramic view - in a few minutes you can reach the 'Peilturm' which offers protection from wind and rain through its panoramic glass dome and can be visited all year round.
