This is a new stamp design and hopefully we will see more in this series. Campen L\/H is the tallest in Germany and 14th tallest in the world and houses the most powerful of all lighthouse lamps in Germany. The mechanical building on the site houses a working diesel engine that was built in 1906. The lights shown by Campen are very interesting. There is a very narrow beam that shines down the middle of the navigation channel that shows a fixed white light. Narrow sector lights which flash are located on either side of the fixed light to indicated that approaching vessels are off the center line.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"ngg-fancybox\" title=\"Campen L\/H | 6\/6\/2019 | B0983\" href=\"http:\/\/lighthousestampsociety.org\/wp\/stamps-germany\/deu_s_1042a.jpg\" rel=\"\" data-image-id=\"9751\" data-src=\"http:\/\/lighthousestampsociety.org\/wp\/stamps-germany\/deu_s_1042a.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/lighthousestampsociety.org\/wp\/stamps-germany\/thumbs\/thumbs_deu_s_1042a.jpg\" data-title=\"Campen L\/H | 6\/6\/2019 | B0983\" data-description=\"Campen L\/H | 6\/6\/2019 | B0983\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/lighthousestampsociety.org\/wp\/stamps-germany\/deu_s_1042a.jpg\" alt=\"Campen L\/H | 6\/6\/2019 | B0983\" width=\"200\" height=\"172\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>See more German lighthouse stamps <a href=\"http:\/\/lighthousestampsociety.org\/wp\/images-2\/stamps\/stamps-countries-f-g\/stamps-germany\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 6 June 2019 Deutschen Post issued a new stamp showing Campen Lighthouse (not to be confused with Kampen Lighthouse).
