Its story

The Yoroz (Işıklı) Lighthouse is in the Fenerköy neighborhood of the Çarşıbaşı district, at the tip of Yoroz Burnu (Cape Yoroz), which extends into the Black Sea. The lighthouse was built in 1886 by Michel Pasha, of French origin. The tower is 8 meters high above the ground and about 25 meters above sea level. The lighthouse and the buildings around it are protected as registered cultural property. The area around the cape is a fine spot on Trabzon's western coast for views of the open sea and the shore.
