Definitions

A lighthouse is a tower or similar structure built with the primary purpose of holding a navigation light. Most lighthouses are located along the coastlines of oceans and major lakes where ship travel occurs. The light may be used to guide ships along known routes, or to warn ships against approaching shores or shallow waters.
