Rubjerg Knude Lighthouse in Jutland Denmark started life on December 27, 1900 (construction started in 1899). The lighthouse is on the top of Lønstrup Klint (cliff), 60 meters above sea level. Until 1908 it operated on gas which it produced from a gasworks on the site. It ceased to operate on August 1, 1968. Shifting sands and coastal erosion led to the buildings being abandoned in 2002. Prior to their abandonment, the buildings had been used as a museum and coffee shop. The small buildings are now partially buried in sand. By 2009 the small buildings had been severely damaged by the pressure of the sand. Today only the lighthouse is left, but not for so many years.

The coastline is disappearing a few meters each year, and what started with a small collection of houses and a lighthouse, only the lighthouse remains today, the rest of the constructions were either eaten by the sea, or demolished to keep the area safe for visitors. It is estimated that the lighthouse will fall into the sea, within the next 10 years, maybe less.
