The Liepāja Lighthouse (Latvian: ''Liepājas bāka'') is a lighthouse located in Liepāja on the Latvian coast of the Baltic Sea.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.latvia.travel/en )〕 ==History==
The lighthouse is located on the southern bank of the civil harbour of Liepāja, near the entrance. It was built of cast iron from resmelted ship-wreckage in 1868.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lighthousedigest.com/Digest/database/uniquelighthouse.cfm?value=3250 )〕 During its lifetime the lighthouse suffered wartime damage, mainly during World War I, when it was hit by sixteen rounds fired by the German battle cruiser ''SMS Augsburg''. Their traces have survived to the present day, as indentations in the lighthouse's external cladding. The new iron sheets covering the lighthouse bear the inscription ''KOD'', meaning they have come from Liepāja, the port and harbour town the lighthouse is located in. Currently the lighthouse's top viewing gallery can be accessed by an internal staircase of one hundred and forty nine steps.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bakas.lv/en/bakas/29/ )〕
