Besides the beach, dunes and nature, Huisduinen is best known for Fort Kijkduin. Just north of Fort Kijkduin is lighthouse De Lange Jaap, which dates from 1878. It is the highest cast-iron lighthouse in Europe. Uniquely, the entire lighthouse is constructed from cast iron plates and is therefore very heavy. During a storm, the top of the tower swings out about 1 meter. The lighthouse was designed by Q. Harder, former chief structural engineer of the pilotage service. The Huisduinen church dates from the 17th century.
