Приносить пользу людям, спасая временами не только корабли от повреждений, но и людские жизни. Что может быть благороднее такой судьбы?
Увы, но жизнь порой выкидывает столь злые шутки, что поверить в них становится совсем непросто. Ветер стал приносить все больше песка с утеса, практически полностью засыпав сам маяк и немногочисленные постройки вокруг.

Борьба за само существование маяка закончилась 1 августа 1968 года. Свет в нем был потушен навсегда. Однако за годы борьбы он стал символом мужества и сопротивления стихии. Он стал крайне популярной достопримечательностью среди туристов, да и жители острова полюбили его. Нет никого, кто бы приехал в Ютландию и не посетил бы маяк.

Маяк Рубьерг Кнуд стал символом сопротивления судьбе, как бы безжалостна и жестока она не была. Впрочем, многие считают его символом бессмысленности сопротивления силам природы, которые неизбежно одержат верх над любыми творениями человеческих рук.

To bring benefit to people, rescuing times not only the ships from damages, but also human lives. What can be more noble than such destiny?
Alas, but life sometimes throws out so mean jokes what to believe in them becomes absolutely difficult. The wind began to bring more and more sand from the rock, having almost completely filled up a beacon and not numerous constructions around.
Fight for existence of a beacon was long and difficult. Established wooden obstacles of a special form, planted the most tenacious and hardy grass and a bush. However sand became more and more. Sometimes in the sea it was impossible to be issued, radiated by a beacon.
Fight for existence of a beacon ended on August 1, 1968. Light in it was extinguished forever. However for years of fight he became a symbol of courage and resistance of elements. It became the extremely popular sight among tourists and inhabitants of the island fell in love with it. There is nobody who would arrive to Jutland and wouldn't visit a beacon.
Constructions round it were used as cafe and the museum earlier, but they had to be thrown in 2002. Already today the beacon costs in a big hole from which a constant clean sand. Scientists consider that in 15-20 years it will be finally closed by sand. Today sand got even in the structure.
The beacon Rubyerg Knud became a symbol of resistance to destiny, it wasn't as if ruthless and cruel. However, many consider it as a symbol of senselessness of resistance to forces of nature which will inevitably win over any creations of human hands.
