Óshóla lighthouse

The lighthouse was built in 1937 on Óshólur under Óshryna, at the far end of Óshlíð, inside Bolungarvík. It is 6.4 m high and made of concrete. The designer is engineer Benedikt Jónasson.

The lighthouse was electrified in 1964, but gas was used as a backup until 1995, when the gas equipment was removed and replaced by batteries connected to a spare bulb.
