SÖDERSKÄR LIGHTHOUSE - N (1/160) SACLE MODEL LANDMARK

Söderskär lighthouse is a XIX century lighthouse standing on a small islet konwn as Majakkasaari located in the outer Poorvo archipelago of the Gulf of Finland. one and a half hour boat ride from Helsinki.

Built in 1862 replacing a previous daymark, the six storeys octogonal tower is 32.5m (107ft) tall. Is constructed of granite on its first 28ft and brick above that. The strong winds blowing in the area were able to sway the brick, so a reinforcement iron and concrete corset was set up in the early XX century.

Today the lighthouse remains inactive. Protected by the Finnish Heritage Agency it is worth to visit on a day trip from Helsinki: Söderskärin majakka

The model was designed using pictures and detailed drawing of the actual building in scale 1/160 (N scale). You can resize it using your favourite software before print, however, if you do so, some of the parts may lose stability or look over scaled.

Model has 12 different pieces that you need to assembly as any other model kit: I attached an instruction booklet together with the downloaded files.
Printing, painting and weathering will give a lot of fun.

This model can be a great addition to your layout or diorama.

Happy modelling!
