This was my walking trip across the Eastern Crimea, the so-called Cimeria.
This photo shows the Ilyinsky lighthouse located in the vicinity of the city of Feodosia. Ilyinsky lighthouse got its name in honor of the cape of the same name, on which it is located, and the cape, in turn, in honor of an ancient church located in the 15-16 centuries on the cape. The temple was destroyed during the seizure of Crimea by the Tatars. The temple was built by the Greek community in honor of the holy prophet Elijah. The reason for the appearance of the lighthouse was the transfer of the Russian fleet from the city of Nikolaev to Sevastopol. The latter was closed for visiting commercial ships, so they had to look for a new port for merchant ships on the Crimean coast. The city of Feodosia was chosen as a new place for the port, but frequent shipwrecks made this place difficult for navigation. In order to improve safe navigation in 1894, the seabed near Feodosia was fully explored by the Ingul hydrographic vessel. The lighthouse was built in 1899.
Ilyinsky lighthouse was made of wood. The lighting equipment was purchased from Finland. The lighthouse is on alert.
In 1912, the lighthouse was improved. Lighting equipment was changed and most of the timber structures were reinforced with steel sheets. So the lighthouse worked until 1941, when the fascist invaders captured Cape Ilya. In 1941, fierce battles were fought in these places, and in one of these battles the lighthouse was completely destroyed.
After the liberation of the peninsula in 1944, a temporary hut was installed on the site of the Ilyinsky lighthouse, which stood until 1956. In 1956, a large 15-meter stone tower was erected, topped with a cylindrical lighting fixture. Near the tower there is a small technical town for servicing the lighthouse with the residence of his team. Since then, the lighthouse has practically remained unchanged, only in 2006 the light optics were replaced with a more powerful and energy-saving LED.
This photo, among my other works, participates in a large Book and Exhibition Project supported by the Grant of the President of Russia "Art Geography of Russia", section "Art Geography of Crimea".
