The São Julião Lighthouse stands within the fort of the same name, on a headland on the north bank of the Tagus estuary in Oeiras, Portugal. Built from 1775, it is a square masonry tower 24 metres high, with a white lantern topped by a red dome. The fort it occupies is the largest sea defence structure in Portugal, and the lighthouse is classed as Immovable Cultural Heritage of Public Interest.
