A Lighthouse of ItalySW

IT 110 Fiumicino (Fiumare)
latitude 41° 44' 39.5" N
longitude 12° 13' 22.4" E

It was destroyed by retreating German troops, and the present lighthouse was built on its foundations. The building was abandoned in 1971 because of structural problems and because the modern port entrance has been moved about 2.5 km north. It is probably endangered. Located at the end of the Via del Faro, on the north side of the mouth of the Tiber River. ARLHS # ITA-202
