'''Lanterns''' are [[blocks]] that emit [[light]].

'''Soul lanterns''' are turquoise variants crafted from [[soul torch]]es.

== Obtaining ==

=== Natural generation ===

Regular lanterns can generate as lamps or lamp posts above farms and on some buildings in [[snowy tundra]] [[village]]s and in [[bastion remnant]]s.

=== Breaking ===
When broken with a [[pickaxe]], a lantern drops itself. When broken without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. A lantern always drops if its supporting [[block]] is removed.

=== Trading ===
Apprentice-level [[librarian]] [[villager]]s have a 50%{{only|bedrock}} or 66.7%{{only|java}} chance of selling a regular lantern for an [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

== Usage ==
The lantern is among the [[Light#Light-emitting blocks|most luminous of light sources]], emitting a light level of 15, while the soul lantern emits a light level of 10.

Lanterns can be placed above or below most solid [[block]]s, although some require {{control|sneaking}}. More information can be found at [[Opacity/Placement]].

When placed below a block the lantern appears to hang. They connect to [[chain]]s seamlessly. Lanterns, like torches, melt snow slowly.

=== Piglins ===
Soul lanterns repel [[piglin]]s.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* Regular lanterns were likely to be a "replacement" version of the [[torch]] if they were added in the [[Halloween Update|2010 Halloween Update]].
* Lanterns are the fifth animated light-source in the game, the others being [[magma block]]s, [[sea lantern]]s, [[fire]] and [[lava]].
* [[Turtle egg]]s can support lanterns placed both above and below them, despite the fact that this causes the lanterns to visually float.<ref>{{bug|MC-169684}}</ref>
