For centuries the lighthouses at Cape Kolka (Domesnes) in northeast Latvia were all important guides for the ships sailing between Western European ports and the Riga port. A newest lighthouse in Kolka (northeast Latvia) was erected in 1884 on an artificially built island in deep water outside the sandbanks and shallows of Cape Kolka. It is still fully functioning automatic lighthouse which guides the ships and welcomes curious tourists.

MODEL BUILDING TIPS
This model will require more than one sitting to build it. We advise to pause between different stages as you work, especially when you come to gluing. The white glue softens the paper and it may lead to misshapen parts if you do not allow them to dry well before proceeding further with assembling. Click here to watch our paper model building tips.
Give yourself enough time to enjoy the process and achieve the best result!

I love this item:) Unfortunately I don't have enough patience and skills to do it myself, but those postcards have a perfect form-factor for postcrossing, lighthouse fans and as a fun activity. Thank you for fast delivery, too

It's so cute! It arrived quickly and luckily didn't have any giveaway on it for what it was as it's part of a gift for my fiancé. I think he'll really enjoy getting to make it, and I look forward to ordering more from you in the future!
