ARNGAST LIGHTHOUSE - N (160) SCALE MODEL LANDMARK

The Arngast lighthouse is a 36.27m (119ft) tall lighthouse located in the Jade Bight, German Jadebusen, on the North Sea. It is one of the most popular and recognizable of the German Coast.

The lighthouse stands on a sand bank 4.5km southeast of Wilhelmshaven. Built in between 1909 and 1910 the construction began with the insertion of a total of 112 wood pilons for the foundation that s the conical tower. It is made with steel and has 8.5m diameter raising 36.27m (119ft) over the low tide mark.

The Arngast lighthouse has two different lantern rooms showing different range of flashing interval and light colour white /green /red to help orientate inside the bay.

Sailing journeys to visit the bay and around the lighthouse can be booked from Wilhelmshaven. Visit Wilhelsmhaven Touristik

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 25 different pieces that you need to assembly as any other model kit: I attached an instruction booklet together with the ed files.

To complete the model you will need too wood dowel Ø3mm to simulate the pier pylons and cosntruction paper 0.5mm thick to build the upper catwalk: With the you'll get printable template and, if you have acces to a laser cutter, SVG file to cut it.

Printing, painting and weathering will give a lot of fun.

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

Happy modelling!
