Nieuwpoort Lighthouse
Highlight • Monument
The first dated from 1883 and was irreparably damaged during the First World War.
A new tower was built in 1923-1926.
This in turn was destroyed during the Second World War.
The current one was built after the war based on the model of the tower from 1923-1926.
Put into operation in 1949.
Cylindrical concrete tower painted in red and white stripes.
Height: 28m
two red flashes every 14 seconds
Range: 15 nautical miles (1 nautical mile = 1852m)
The light installation made according to the Fresnel principle dates from 1923-1926. This equipment was brought to Paris in 1940 and thus survived the destruction in 1944. It originally worked on gas and was later converted to electricity.
With its red and white paint and its typical silhouette, the tower is a unique beacon in the Nieuwpoort dunes. Its silhouette also serves as a logo for the city of Nieuwpoort.

Lombardsijde Creek
Highlight • Lake
At low tide, the inlet is dry except for a deep water-filled gully. This deep channel is a remnant of the former northern channel, the Ebgat. At high tide, the inlet is completely submerged.
Historical photos show that the shape of the Creek and its banks have hardly changed in the last hundred years.
