Where is this ?

Can't pick up your first pic Raggi - but from the second I'm guessing it's the Obrestad Light at Ha ?

I believe Gullermo had a room there - second window on the left....

You mean Færder lighthouse on Tjøme?
The one I posted is on the west coast, one of the most exposed lighthouses we have, often impossible to land there. Did that help?

An easier one:
- The oldest lighthouse (I believe) still working in the world
- An old empire built it.
- Has suffered several changes through its life.
- I do not have a house there, but quite close....
