Victory Lighthouse
Faro della Vittoria
A 68-meter memorial lighthouse on the hillside, topped with a statue of Victory, offering views over the bay while commemorating sailors lost in World War I.
The lighthouse was built between 1923 and 1927 and serves as both a navigation beacon and a memorial to naval personnel who died in World War I. Its base features sailor statues and the anchor from the destroyer Audace. Visitors can climb to the observation deck (about 285 steps) for views over the Gulf of Trieste, Miramare Castle, and the port. It is generally open only on weekends and holidays from April to October. Admission is a few euros; check opening times before you go.
