Return to Welcome to Fife North Queensferry Light Tower

North Queensferry Light Tower

North Queensferry Light Tower is the world's smallest working Light Tower. It sits on the Town Pier, alongside one of the engineering wonders of the world, the iconic Forth Bridge which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Built in 1817 by Robert Stevenson as a key part of the Queensferry Passage across the Forth, this tiny part of Scottish maritime history has been carefully restored to full working order. It reopened to the public in June 2010, when HRH The Princess Royal relit the lamp 120 years after it fell into disuse.

Open all year (may be subject to weather conditions October to April)
