Fuglenes Fyr

The small (5m high) coastal lighthouse at Fuglenesodden, Hammerfest, was established in 1859 and active until 1911 when it was replaced by an automated light. It is part of the Fuglenesodden Outdoor Museum.
The building on the right is not an outhouse but the oljehuset (oil house), used for storing the paraffin needed to operate the lighthouse.

Der Leuchtturm ist ja niedlich. Klasse mit den typischen norwegischen Farben.

Es ist fast schon schade, dass du die Assoziation "outhouse" gleich abgeräumt hast ;-)

Two beautifully composed and taken images Gudrun..........both captured in lovely light and wonderful detail. I like the look of the tiny lighthouse and thanks for explaining the purpose of the small hut.........I did wonder whether it might be an outhouse :-))

Lovely work as always..!!

Das kleine rote Häuschen gefällt mir fast noch besser als der Leuchtturm ;-)

The bright, lively colours of Norway...your pictures always make me feel homesick of the Great North, Gudrun!
The little light house and the red oil house stand out on the moss of the rocks and the blue of the ocean.
