Andenes Lighthouse stands at the northern tip of Andøya in the Vesterålen archipelago, in Andøy Municipality, Nordland, Norway. Established in 1859, it is a round 40-metre cast iron tower painted red, and it was automated in 1978. Listed as a protected site in 1999, it is managed by the nearby Andøy Museum, which runs guided summer tours, and it is the best known and most visited lighthouse in Norway's Arctic region.
