Do you know where the oldest remaining lighthouse is in the world?
Dover, UK.

This Roman lighthouse is the oldest surviving lighthouse in England and one of the oldest in the world. It is located on the south-eastern side of Dover, Kent.
It dates from around 46–50 AD, during the reign of Emperor Claudius. In comparison to modern lighthouses, its height of just 25.4 metres is quite short, but in its day, it was a towering landmark.
It was built using flint local to the area and mortar. It was an important feature of the Roman trade routes and military operations; its flickering light was critical in guiding ships safely to shore.
After nearly 2,000 years, the original Roman stonework on the seaward side is weather-worn, and today it stands at just 19 metres high.
