The structure is the historic Venetian Lighthouse in Fiskardo. It was built in the 16th century during Venetian rule and served to secure the important export harbor of Fiskardo.
The lighthouse is characterized by an imposing, cylindrical tower reminiscent of an ancient column. It is surrounded by a stone wall about two meters high.
The severe earthquake of 1953 significantly damaged the structure. In 2018, the structure was extensively restored through a private initiative by the Apostolides family.
The old tower is no longer in operation as a lighthouse. It is occasionally used for exhibitions.
