Three solid-state buildings constructed from red brick have been added to the site. They consist of a utilities building, ticket office and the now completed tearoom, which on our last visit was at a functional stage minus proper windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3

perimeter, by way of the coastal route, of Zalivino Lighthouse. Outside the lighthouse grounds, the old German buildings lining the water\u2019s edge facing out across the Curonian Lagoon appear to have been given the once over, either that or I missed this fact on my previous visit. The brickwork looks cleaner, and the lovely wooden doors and window shutters strike me as being recent installations along with the terracotta-modelled roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"345\" data-attachment-id=\"8399\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/expatkaliningrad.com\/ru\/zalivino-lighthouse-restoration-reaches-new-heights\/renovated-german-barns-near-zalivino-lighthouse-rz-min\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?fit=1900%2C1051&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1900,1051\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?fit=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?fit=625%2C345&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=625%2C345&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"German barns restored on Curonian Lagoon\" class=\"wp-image-8399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=1024%2C566&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=768%2C425&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=1536%2C850&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=624%2C345&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=24%2C13&amp;ssl=1 24w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=36%2C20&amp;ssl=1 36w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?resize=48%2C27&amp;ssl=1 48w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?w=1900&amp;ssl=1 1900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Renovated-German-barns-near-Zalivino-Lighthouse-rz-min.jpg?w=1250&amp;ssl=1 1250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Inside the compound, everything looked immediately more presentable.

keeper\u2019s cottage, which had been nothing more than a shell, ravaged by time and cannibalised by thieves when the site fell derelict after perestroika, has been renovated to such a high standard that had I not witnessed the dereliction with my own eyes and taken photos to prove it, I would have scarcely believed it was the same building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Although the museum it would like to become has a long way to go, for those interested in marine life, the old keeper\u2019s cottage contains an interesting display of marine paraphernalia and artefacts associated with lighthouse history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\"

\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The two rooms of the cottage also contain some rather fetching reproduction antique furniture and other curios. For example, a not-for-the-squeamish stuffed and mounted seabird and a round-shaped Deco-style early plastic radio that may or may not be original but is endowed with vintage appeal. There is also a Vienna-style wall clock, two hefty wagon wheels and, in the centre of the room, a polished wooden dining table and corresponding chairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">I think it is safe to say that this level of homeliness is not the one that the lighthouse keeper would have been accustomed to, and yet the warmth transcending the basic need for warmth on a bitterly cold winter\u2019s day would have probably been no stranger to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">What also affected me was the solidity of the building which, considering its exposed location, was reassuring indeed, since no amount of huffing and puffing was about to blow this house in. Strong, solid, durable and intuitively enriched, the lighthouse keeper\u2019s cottage could hardly have been more welcoming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Zalivino Lighthouse tower<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">A visit to Zalivino Lighthouse without climbing the tower would be like going to the pub and ordering an empty glass. Thus, even on this coldest of days, off and up we went.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8402\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/expatkaliningrad.com\/ru\/zalivino-lighthouse-restoration-reaches-new-heights\/door-to-zalivino-lighthouse-tower-rz-min\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?fit=600%2C951&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"600,951\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Interior door to Zalivino Lighthouse tower&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?fit=189%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?fit=600%2C951&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?resize=461%2C731&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Interior door to Zalivino Lighthouse tower\" class=\"wp-image-8402\" width=\"461\" height=\"731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?resize=189%2C300&amp;ssl=1 189w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?resize=15%2C24&amp;ssl=1 15w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?resize=23%2C36&amp;ssl=1 23w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Door-to-Zalivino-Lighthouse-tower-rz-min.jpg?resize=30%2C48&amp;ssl=1 30w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">At the time of our ascent, or rather a few minutes before, Zalivino suffered a power outage, so we had to climb the tower without the aid of electric lamps. The first few steps were enveloped in darkness, but the windows in the tower walls, as small as they are, are sufficient to light the way and as you reach the base of the lamp room the light pours in from the dome above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The elevated view from the lighthouse window reveals the extent to which the outlying buildings and the site in which they stand have been improved and whilst up there in the Gods, we got to gaze across and enjoy the scene of the winter landscape complete with icicle-petrified coastline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"592\" height=\"800\" data-attachment-id=\"8404\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/expatkaliningrad.com\/ru\/zalivino-lighthouse-restoration-reaches-new-heights\/view-from-zalivino-lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?fit=592%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"592,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Zalivino coastline in winter&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?fit=222%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?fit=592%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?resize=592%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Bitterly cold Baltic coastline\" class=\"wp-image-8404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?w=592&amp;ssl=1 592w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?resize=222%2C300&amp;ssl=1 222w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?resize=18%2C24&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?resize=27%2C36&amp;ssl=1 27w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/View-from-Zalivino-Lighthouse-along-coastline-rz-min.jpg?resize=36%2C48&amp;ssl=1 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 592px) 100vw, 592px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">As stimulating as these prospects were, there were two impressions from the top of the tower whose tenacity cannot be equalled. The first was the sound of the wind, rushing across the lagoon, curling around the lamp room like the giant tentacles of a phantom sea squid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The second was that of Olga daring to step outside onto the wind-swept lighthouse\u2019s viewing platform so that I could take a photo of her. Of course, I was champing at the bit to get out on the ledge myself, make no mistake about that! But someone had to cower inside in order to take the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The renovation and refurbishment of Zalivino lighthouse has come on in proverbial leaps and bounds in a relatively short space of time. If you are not personally acquainted with the near demolition site that it was in 2020 at the outset of the project, the photographic collage within the keeper&#8217;s cottage will give you a good idea of just how bleak the damage was, as will the <a href=\"https:\/\/expatkaliningrad.com\/ru\/support-the-restoration-of-zalivinio-lighthouse-kaliningrad\/\" title=\"photographs used in my earlier post\">photographs used in my earlier post<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">You will also find in the keeper&#8217;s cottage a framed composition of images depicting where the restorationists want to be with the project by 2024. Unfortunately, the photograph that I took of the wall-mounted display is not good, as my hands were in need of a warm cup of tea and the light from the window reflected badly into the lens of the camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Comparison of the photographic evidence of the condition of the lighthouse, its ancillary buildings and site as they appeared in 2020 with the photos taken this year (2023) demonstrate the achievements to date, making the 2024 target a less ambitious objective than might otherwise be supposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"469\" data-attachment-id=\"8406\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/expatkaliningrad.com\/ru\/zalivino-lighthouse-restoration-reaches-new-heights\/zalivino-lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?fit=1290%2C968&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1290,968\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Zalivino Lighthouse from the entrance gate&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?fit=625%2C469&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=625%2C469&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Zalivino Lighthouse looking good!\" class=\"wp-image-8406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=624%2C468&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=24%2C18&amp;ssl=1 24w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=36%2C27&amp;ssl=1 36w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?resize=48%2C36&amp;ssl=1 48w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/expatkaliningrad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Zalivino-Lighthouse-from-entrance-gate-rz-min.jpg?w=1290&amp;ssl=1 1290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Without a shadow of a doubt, a lot of work, care and attention has been invested in the project, not to mention wonga.
