The lighthouse erected at the end of the 19th century has survived to this day unchanged. The building consists of an octagonal (octagonal) tower 19.5 m high and a little lower house of lighthouse keepers. With the advent of satellite navigation, the lighthouse lost its relevance to shipping. In 1993, it was entered in the register of monuments and opened to visitors. Is an excellent vantage point.
The mouth of the Słupia River has been difficult to navigate for centuries. In 1871, a 12-meter mast was built, on which an oil lamp was pulled visible from a distance of 6 nautical miles. 20 years later the lighthouse in its present shape was built. Its light was visible at 18 nautical miles (about 33 km).
In ancient times, the inhabitants of Ustka, burning bonfires on the beach, caused ship disasters, which they later plundered profitably. Successive generations of lighthouse keepers swore that they could hear ghostly howls, moans and stomping during lonely guards. These noises were to be made by the spirits of people who died on sneaky ships. The ghosts disappeared forever when new windows were put into the lantern during the renovation.
