'''Orehoved Lighthouse''' is a lighthouse in [[Orehoved]] on the north coast of [[Falster]], [[Denmark]]. It was built in 1895 on the northwest corner of the quay, replacing an earlier light which had simply been placed on a mast at the end of the railway pier. A blue gas burner was installed in 1912. In 1933, a third storey was added to the tower, bringing it up to a height of {{convert|11|m}}.<ref>[http://www.fyrtaarne.dk/orehoved.html "Orehoved"], Danske fyrtårne. {{in lang|da}} Retrieved 16 December 2012.</ref><ref name=rowlett/>
