The Pilsum lighthouse is a lighthouse located today in Germany, near the city of Emden, on the mainland opposite the island of Borkum, on the North Sea. It is one of the most characteristic buildings in the East Frisia region. The building was designed as early as 1883, but the building was completed in 1889 or 1890, and it was not put into use until 1891. The building was created as a result of Dutch-German cooperation aimed at marking the light fairway at the mouth of the Ems river. The Pilum lighthouse was used until 1915, when it was temporarily turned off to make it difficult for enemy units to navigate. Ultimately, it was shut down in 1919 as a result of sand formation and a change in the course of the Ems estuary. It was not until 1973 that the building was renovated, but it was not restored to use. Currently, there is a wave and tide measurement point there. At present, the height of the building is 11 meters, with a diameter of 4.4 meters. The lighthouse is characterized by a steel structure covered with metal sheets. Its characteristic painting (not applied until 1973) is to be a signal that it is inactive.
