Tungenes Fyr (lighthouse) is the northern tip of the district Jæren in the county Rogaland. This is one of my regular sites where I do my landscapes. Some of these pictures will be displayed here. I also would like to tell you a bit about this lighthouse as it’s one of my favorite places to go to when I need to get out and clear my mind.
Tungenes lighthouse is a wooden lighthouse built in 1828 and rebuilt in 1862 and 1898, and taken out of service in 1984. To day the light is moved to a little island called “Bragen” that lies a bit out in the sea from the old lighthouse building. The new lighthouse is fully automated.
