Phare de la Vieille, Brittany Coast, France 🇫🇷

The legendary guardian of Brittany's coastline, this 58-meter granite tower has braved Atlantic storms since 1863. Its light, visible for 50 km, has saved ships from the treacherous reefs of the "shipwreck graveyard" for centuries. Today, it lures adventurers ready to climb 365 steps for a panorama where raging waves meet the sky.

Did you know? The lighthouse was one of the first in the world to use an electric light, installed in 1902.
