Historic lighthouses
- Leptis Magna Lighthouse – Located in the ruins of the Roman city of Leptis Magna it was a lighthouse that was in use between 200 and 455 AD. It has been estimated that the multi-level tower once stood 35m high. A substantial part of the lower storey still remains at the site, on a headland overlooking the now silted-up harbour.
