Märket Lighthouse
Märket is a 3.3-hectare uninhabited skerry in the Baltic Sea shared by Sweden and Finland, with a lighthouse as its salient humanmade feature. Märket has been divided between the two countries since the Treaty of Fredrikshamn of 1809 defined the border between Sweden and Grand Duchy of Finland as going through the middle of the island.| Tap on a place to explore it |
