Blankenese Low Lighthouse is a navigational aid on the river Elbe in the Hamburg district of Blankenese, Germany. The original structure, completed in 1984 and standing 42 metres tall, was demolished in November 2020 and replaced by a similar lighthouse approximately 200 metres upstream. It functions in tandem with Blankenese High Lighthouse to form a range of lights guiding vessels upriver; together, the two lights command the longest range on the lower Elbe at 8.4 kilometres.
