Savudrija is the oldest active lighthouse in the Adriatic. It is also the most northern Croatian lighthouse on the northwestern cape of the Istrian peninsula.

It is 36 meters high (focal height) and 29 metres height. It is cylindrical stone tower with lantern and double gallery.

The Savudrija-Salvore lighthouse is still amazing for its beauty. The lighthouse keepers were allowed to have a weapon and fire it, if necessary.

Local stories often connect the Savudrija lighthouse with the sad story of the Austrian Count Metternich. He apparently fell in love with a beautiful Croatian lady at a ball in Vienna.

He built the lighthouse and the house beside it just for her. Unfortunately, the owners never got the chance to live together in the building. The noble woman died and Count Meternich never visited it again.
