The Republic of Serbia is the largest of the nations remaining from the former Yugoslav federation. Serbia has no coastline, but it has two historic lighthouses located on the Dunav (Danube) River. Thanks to Michel Forand for drawing my attention to the recent restoration of these lighthouses.

ARLHS numbers are from the ARLHS World List of Lights.

Lighthouses

* Reke Tamiš Zapad (Tamiš River West)

1909. Inactive(?). 6 m (20 ft) round brick tower with lantern, mounted on a broadly conical stone base. A closeup photo is available, also a view of both lighthouses, Klaus Huelse has a historic postcard view of the two lighthouses, and Google has a satellite view. The lighthouses were restored in time for their centennial in 2009. Another closeup shows a small lens in the lantern, so it is possible that a decorative light is displayed. Located on the west side of the mouth of the Tamiš River near Pančevo, about 15 km east of Belgrade. Site open, tower closed. ARLHS SER-002.

* Reke Tamiš Istok (Tamiš River East)

1909. Inactive(?). 6 m (20 ft) round brick tower with lantern, mounted on a broadly conical stone base. Zdenko Kanački's photo is at right, there's a view of both lighthouses, Klaus Huelse has a historic postcard view of the two lighthouses, and Google has a satellite view. Located on the east side of the mouth of the Tamiš River. Site open, tower closed. ARLHS SER-001.
