Centre de transmissions de la Marine nationale de La Régine, Naval transmission center in Villemagne, France

The communication facility extends across 550 hectares within the Haut-Languedoc Regional Nature Park, featuring a network of transmission towers in hexagonal formation.

The construction of this strategic naval communication center began in 1966, with official operations commencing on July 1st, 1971, following France's departure from Mers-El-Kebir.

The center represents France's commitment to maintaining independent military communications, employing 190 personnel who manage sophisticated transmission systems for submarine communications.

The facility utilizes very low frequency radio waves that enable communication with submarines at considerable depths, ensuring constant contact with naval forces.

The central transmission tower reaches 357 meters in height, making it the tallest structure in France, surrounded by protective electric fences and surveillance systems.
