The Juodkrantė Lighthouse was built in 1953 on the Hill of Witches, which is 53 m high. A tower of the lighthouse is metal, quadrangular, its lower part is with openwork, while the upper part is lined with light-coloured boards and has a viewpoint installed. The lighthouse has a lighting device set up whose white light signals (3 seconds on, 5 seconds off) are visible at a distance of 33 kilometres (18 nautical miles). It is the most mysterious lighthouse in Lithuania. Surrounded by the dense forests, this metal lighthouse is visible from the sea (900 metres away from the sea) as well as the nearby hills. The Juodkrantė Lighthouse is 19.7 m in height and is still used as a navigational facility operating within the overall chain of other marine lighthouses in Lithuania.
The lighthouse is not available for visitors and can be reached on foot and by bicycle.
