Schiermonnikoog: Noordertoren en Zuidertoren

            The red 'Noordertoren' (North Tower) is 37 meters tall (44 meters above sea level). It was built in 1853.
In the distance the white 'Zuidertoren' (South Tower), also from 1853, now a museum lighthouse and antenna tower.
Schiermonnikoog island, Friesland, The Netherlands.

De vuurtoren van Schier (de Noordertoren) is 37 meter hoog en staat 44 meter boven de zeespiegel, in de duinen bij het Noordzeestrand. Het lichtkarakter is vier lichtstralen in 20 seconden. 
De witte toren in de duinen bij het dorp Schiermonnikoog (de Zuidertoren, die later is gebruikt als watertoren en antennetoren) is in 1910 buiten gebruik gesteld toen de rode (noordelijke) toren een draailicht kreeg. De witte toren is nu een museumpje.
Beide vuurtorens op het eiland zijn in 1853 gebouwd in opdracht van koning Willem III. Op 1 mei 1854 zijn de lichten voor het eerst ontstoken.
