Lighthouses
On the road to the lighthouses
The Brittany coast has the largest concentration of lighthouses in the world, with a record in Finistère: the "Route des Phares" is declined in 20 mythical lighthouses: from Ile Vierge to Ouessant, from Pointe Saint-Mathieu to Rade de Brest.
"Defying the raging oceans, the howling winds, the fury of the breaking waves hitting the stone like cannon shots, these granite giants are the silent and benevolent sentinels of our coasts. These ocean watchers pierce the darkest nights with their bursts of light with the sole mission of bringing sailors back to safe harbor and never fail".
