"Churches, for some, maybe?"
Only if they are of the "right flavor", I think. I can't think of a building with a stronger symbolism than the lighthouse.
None the less, more and more lighthouses are shut down since the ocean trade doesn't need them, which can be confusing for those not using gps.
When I was crossing Gävle bay in kayak in the darkening evening once, we took aim on the biggest light since that must be the large lighthouse situated on an island on our maps, right? Not quite so, because that one was shut down...
