Pulau Undan Lighthouse

Located 25 kilometres off the coast of mainland Malacca, The Pulau Undan lighthouse was designed and built by Chance Brothers & Company of Birmingham in 1879 and completed in 1880, serving as a navigational beacon for vessels travelling along the Straits. Constructed of masonry, the lighthouse features an octagonal form that accommodates the lantern and gallery, connected to a single-storey keeper’s house. This historic lighthouse remains operational today, complemented by a newer cylindrical concrete communications tower three times its height beside it.
