ID 179270597 © Grzegorzkowalczyk156 | Megapixl.com
The smaller lighthouse is one of the oldest concrete lighthouses in Iceland and was built in 1918. It served the fishing town until it was deactivated in 1947 in favour of the larger structure several meters away. In winter time this location is a popular place to shoot the Northern lights. The old lighthouse is really charming standing on a rough textured cliff very close to the sea and makes an excellent spot for photography. It has even been nominated one of the 6 most iconic and picturesque lighthouses in the world.
