The Knock lighthouse, completed in 1972 in Emden, Germany, is a modernist concrete structure rising 55 metres above the Lower Saxony landscape. Built during an era of functional industrial design, the tower exemplifies the minimalist aesthetic of mid-twentieth-century lighthouse engineering, its stark concrete form serving as both a navigational aid and an architectural statement of post-war European pragmatism.
