Baily Lighthouse is located on Cape Howth. They are the southern suburbs of Dublin and also a very popular destination for weekend excursions and walks for the capital's residents. The lighthouse stands on a steep cliff. It is now operated automatically and there is a small museum in the former lighthouse keeper's cottage.
The lighthouse is located south of the town of Howth, on a narrow, steep promontory. It was built in this place at the beginning of the 19th century, but there was a navigation point on the cape from the 17th century. It was operated by a lighthouse keeper until 1996 and was the last Irish lighthouse to switch to an automatic system.
The lighthouse is a round tower with sloping walls, not too high. Next to it, there is the former lighthouse keeper's house. A museum has been operating in it since 2000, which shows the history of the lighthouse and ship disasters that took place at the foot of a rocky cape.
