Description
Built on the site of a 17th century fort, Valentia Island Lighthouse on Cromwell Point has stood against sea and invader for hundreds of years. You can still see the cannons overlooking the harbour. Now, this gleaming white lighthouse looks out across some of the most spectacular sights along the Wild Atlantic Way.
The lighthouse was designed by George Halpin Senior, one of the most famous civil engineers of the time, and the light was first exhibited in 1841. A lighthouse keeper lived with his family on site until 1947, when the lighthouse was automated.
Valentia Island (Irish: Dairbhre, meaning "The Oak Wood") is one of Ireland's most westerly points. It lies off the Iveragh Peninsula in the southwest of County Kerry in Ireland.
