Lange Jaap

            Officieel vuurtoren Kijkduin (naar het nabijgelegen fort), uit 1878. Van de gietijzeren vuurtorens in Nederland is dit met ruim 63 meter de hoogste, maar ook de gebrekkigste.

Het verbleekte schilderwerk met roeststrepen is een zichtbaar teken dat Rijkswaterstaat al 20 jaar geen herstel- en onderhoudswerk meer uitvoert, terwijl dat voor het behoud van de toren steeds dringender nodig was en is - zeker vanwege de inherente complicaties van de constructie. De onderzoeksrapporten van ingenieursbureaus stapelen zich op, en intussen sloopt het bouwwerk zich langzaam maar zeker zelf. Het is twijfelachtig of herstel überhaupt nog mogelijk is

Lighthouse near Den Helder in the province of North-Holland. With a height of over 63 metres it is the highest cast-iron lighthouse in the Netherlands.

Sadly, the 1878-built structure is in a very bad state due to inherent flaws and a lack of maintenance over the last 20 years. While more and more research reports are produced, the degradation process is steadily going on
