The lighthouse in Moritzburg is an inland lighthouse in Saxony. The staffage structure was built in the late 18th century as part of a backdrop for re-enacted naval battles. It is the only lighthouse built for this purpose in Germany and at the same time one of the oldest inland lighthouses in the Federal Republic of Germany
