Tämä majakka sijaitsee Krynica Morskassa, Pomeranian voivodikunnassa, Puolassa.
Alkuperäinen majakka, joka on rakennettu vuonna 1895, tuhoutui 1945. Uusi majakka, nyt avoinna vierailijoille, on rakennettu vuonna 1951. Vieressä on pieni hautausmaa, jossa on muistomerkki neuvostoliittolaisille sotilaille, jotka kuolivat räjähdyksessä, joka tuhosi alkuperäisen rakennuksen.

Avattu täysin yleisölle, tästä majakasta on kauniit näkymät Itämerelle ja Veikselin lahteen.

Rakentaminen alkoi kesäkuussa 1894. Majakka kuitenkin räjäytettiin vuonna 1945. Uusi majakka rakennettiin vasta 1950-luvun alussa. Se aloitti toimintansa kesällä 1951. Se oli rakennettu betonielementeistä ja on muodoltaan kartio. Tornin korkeus on 26,5m ja valo on asennettu 53m merenpinnan yläpuolelle. Valon kantama on 18 merimailia. Majakka peruskorjattiin vuonna 1996. Koko torni punainen - kirkkaana päivänä se voidaan nähdä useita meripeninkulman päässä. 

This lighthouse is located in Krynica Morska, Pomeranian Voivodship, Poland.
The original lighthouse, built in 1895, was destroyed in 1945 after being mined by retreating German forces. A new lighthouse, now open to visitors, was built in 1951. Adjacent to it is a small cemetery with a monument to the Soviet soldiers killed in the explosion that destroyed the original building.

Opened completely to the public, this lighthouse has beautiful views over the Baltic Sea and the Vistula Lagoon.

Construction of the lighthouse here began in June 1894. The structure was however blown up in 1945 by the retreating German soldiers. A new lighthouse was built only at the beginning of the 1950’s in accordance with a design supplied by the Gdansk Polytechnic. It began operating in the summer of 1951. It was built from concrete blocks and has the shape of a truncated cone with an internal staircase climbing to the top. The light system is made up of a two-position changer with 1000 watt bulbs and a cylindrical Fresnel lens. The angle of the beam covers the full rotation so the lighthouse is visible from the sea as well as from the Vistula Lagoon. The height of the tower is 26.5m (a round red tower with an observation gallery) and the light is mounted 53m above sea level with a range of 18 nautical miles. A major refurbishment of the lighthouse was carried out in 1996. The whole tower was then painted red – on a clear day it can be seen from several nautical miles away. The observation gallery has views of the open sea and the Vistula Lagoon, from the land side Tolmicko and Frombork and with good visibility even the lights of the Hel Peninsula and Gdansk.
