Front Range Light of the Sea Canal

The Front Range Light of the Sea Canal in Kronstadt is a monument of early 20th-century hydro-technical architecture. The 20-meter-high structure, with its light at 19 meters above sea level, was erected in stone in 1914 by the Danish company "Christiani & Nielsen" simultaneously with the Rear Light. The contrasting coloring of its faces allows it to be unmistakably identified during the day and distinguished from the rear light. The lights on the channel, where wooden signs with lanterns illuminating 180 degrees of the horizon were previously used, were relit in 1919–1924 after the fairway was cleared of sunken vessels.
