Geocache Description:


Knudshoved har 2 fyr. Det ældste er vippefyret, som er fra 1750. Det fungerede med brænde og kul. I tåget vejr blev der anbragt kanonslag i vippekurven. Eksplosionen var nemmere at høre end braget fra de tidligere brugte kanoner. I nærheden ligger knaldhytten, hvor kanonslagene blev opbevaret. Det nye fyrtårn er bygget i 1948.

Knudshoved has 2 lighthouses. The oldest is a teeter light from 1750. It worked with firewood and coal. In foggy weather there were maroons in the teeter basket. The explosions were easier to hear than the crash from the earlier used cannons. Near by is the bang hut, where the maroons were kept. The new lighthouse is built in 1948.
