Comment

Construction of the lighthouse dates back to 1885: a fixed white light on a 13.20 m-high square tower at the gable end of the main building, built by César Maubrat, a Pont-l'Abbé contractor. The lighthouse was electrified in 1943, then damaged by German troops on August 10, 1944. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phare_de_Sainte-Marine
