Tower of Hercules: A 2000-Year-Old Roman Lighthouse Still Guides Ships in Spain
A Coruña, Spain – The iconic Tower of Hercules, recognized as the world's oldest working Roman lighthouse, continues to captivate visitors with its rich history and panoramic views. This UNESCO World Heritage site, located in A Coruña, Galicia, stands proudly at 55 meters tall, having guided ships along the Atlantic coast for nearly two millennia. Constructed in the late 1st or early 2nd century under Emperor Trajan, the ancient structure has undergone several significant renovations throughout its long history, with the most notable restoration completed in 1791 by architect Giannini. Today, it remains a testament to Roman engineering and a vital beacon for maritime navigation. The surrounding area offers dramatic coastal scenery, with waves crashing against rocky cliffs, providing a picturesque backdrop to this enduring historical monument.
