Farul, lumina care veghează de milenii drumul oamenilor mării: de la hangiul Toma Radicevic care ardea seu la farul genovez ridicat de englezi. Povestea simbolului vandalizat de sovietici

The history of lighthouses in Constanța reflects their enduring significance for maritime navigation, from ancient times to modernity. The first lighthouses guided sailors to safety, while the modern Farul Carol I, built in 1903, symbolizes Romania's maritime heritage. Despite periods of decline, including vandalism during the Soviet era, these structures remain vital landmarks. The recent restoration of the original lighthouse highlights its historical importance and tourist appeal.
