Torches are non-solid blocks that emit light.

Soul torches are turquoise variants crafted with the addition of soul soil or soul sand.

Torches can be broken instantly using anything, and drop themselves as an item.

A torch is removed and drops itself as an item if:

its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed
water or lava flows into its space
a piston pushes it or moves a block into its space

Torches can be placed on the top or the sides of most solid blocks, although some blocks require sneaking. Being non-solid, torches have no collision box. More information about placement can be found at Opacity/Placement.

Gravity-affected blocks like sand and gravel cannot fall if space immediately beneath is occupied by a torch. These blocks break if they fall onto a torch.

Torches give off a light level of 14. Torches also melt snow layers within 2 blocks and ice within 3 blocks (taxicab distance).

Soul torches give off a light level of 10. Due to their lower light level, soul torches do not melt snow or ice.

Soul torches repel piglins.
