GENOVESE LIGHTHOUSE Constanta ROMANIA

A Landmark in the Black Sea coast is the Genovese Lighthouse.
Genovese Lighthouse is located in the northern end of the cliff. It is believed that it was built by the Genoese for guidance to ensure that ships bound for Constanta bay, around 1300. Octagonal lighthouse has a height of 8 meters and the top has a metal dome. The lighthouse was rebuilt in its current form by the British in 1860-1861. Is an interesting monument of architecture. Wars have caused more damage. In 1948 it was restored.
Deserves to walk this way!
