Faro de Torres
Lighthouse of Torres is integrated in the Archaeological-Natural Park of Campa de Torres, which has on its ground floor a permanent exhibition on the evolution of the bay of Gijón from pre-Roman times to the present day, and on the upper floor, houses the headquarters of the Manuel Fernández-Miranda archaeological library and the offices of the archaeological museums of Gijón. It is noteworthy to add that there is a viewpoint on the cliff with graphic documentation about the seabirds of the environment, and that it is a regular point of observation of birds, especially a colony of shearwaters cormorants, unique in the central area of Asturias. |

If you are in any way responsible for one or more lighthouses, you can contact us to have these lighthouses included on this website. The goal is to have as many lighthouses from all coastal nations in Europe placed on the map, so that many visitors can enjoy navigating the map or physically visiting the lighthouse stations.
