Its story

Marmaraereğlisi Lighthouse was built in 1861 by Mişel Paşa (Michel Pasha), of French origin, at the southern tip of the bay. The lighthouse tower is about 26 meters high from the ground and 52 meters above the sea; the structure consists of a tower and a keeper's residence. As it stands at the tip of the headland where the remains of Perinthos lie, it is easily seen together with a visit to the ancient city. From the shore you can enjoy an open view of the Marmara.
