old shinko no. 5 pier signal tower

other names. Kobe Harbor Signal Tower

what. lighthouse seen (December 2014, June 2023)

where. Kobe Harborland, Kobe, Hyogo, Japan

remarks. More often referred to as a signal tower rather than a lighthouse, it is unlikely to have had functioned as a lighthouse. It was moved to its current site in 1992, after having been retired from use in 1990. The first photograph shows the lighthouse as seen from the Kobe Port Tower.

note. Japanese for lighthouse: 灯台 (tōdai)
