Cape Trafalgar lighthouse stands at Barbate on Spain's southern coast, a 34-metre tower completed in 1862. Built to guide maritime traffic along this strategically significant stretch of the Strait of Gibraltar, the structure combines the functional demands of a working lighthouse with the architectural forms of its era.
