Odderøya Lighthouse stands on the southwestern coast of the island of Odderøya in Kristiansand Municipality, Norway. The current structure, built in 1874, replaced an earlier lighthouse erected in 1832. Rising 8.7 meters, this second iteration was deactivated in 1984, when a new automated lighthouse was constructed nearby. The historic tower remains standing and is protected as a cultural property by the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage.
