Svenska Högarna (en: ''The Swedish Hillocks'') is a small group of islands and a lighthouse located east of Möja in the Stockholm archipelago. The lighthouse is located on the largest island ''Storön'', and is the only lighthouse in Stockholm archipelago with the classic iron design of architect Nils Gustaf von Heidenstam. Before the lighthouse was built there had been a checkered day beacon on the island, it is now located at the island of Storkläppen in Östergötland. Svenska Högarna lighthouse was lit in 1874 with a colza oil lamp. In 1887 a paraffin lamp was installed, in 1966 it was electrified and in 1986 solar cells were put in use to generate power. The island is staffed with a weather station. It is frequently reported as a wind observation station in the Shipping Forecast of the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute. Since 1994 the lighthouse is owned by a foundation called "Edward Sjöbloms stiftelse". All of the islands are a nature reserve with sparse vegetation. On the islands you can also observe two giant's kettles. There is no scheduled traffic to Svenska Högarna. Access is by own boat or taxiboat. The isolated islands are not easy to reach: the weather must be very calm in order to moor boats safely to the rocky shores. ==Gallery== File:SvenskaHogarnaHamn.JPG File:32 2 SVH FYR.jpg File:32 7 SvH Fyren speglar sig.jpg File:SVH LINS.JPG 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Svenska Högarna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
