Pointe-à-la-Renommée Lighthouse, Historic lighthouse on Gulf of St. Lawrence, Quebec, Canada.

Pointe-à-la-Renommée Lighthouse is a red cylindrical cast-iron tower, 15.5 m high and 3.6 m in diameter, standing beside a shingled wooden keeper's house with a steep gabled roof and a square tower section. The tower has a red lantern room, a gallery with red railing, and a domed red roof topped by a weather vane. The structures sit on a grassy slope about 20 m above the St. Lawrence River.

The first wooden lighthouse, a keeper's house with an integrated square tower, was lit on 1 October 1880, with James Ascah as keeper until 1913. In 1904 a Marconi station there sent Canada's first coastal-to-ship wireless message, to the Parisian. The wooden tower was replaced in 1907 by a prefabricated cast-iron tower 15.5 m high and 3.6 m in diameter, assembled beside the old one.

The name Pointe-à-la-Renommée may come from the wreck of La Renommée, a vessel from La Rochelle that ran aground on Anticosti in 1736; another account says castaways reached the point and named it after their hunger, which English speakers rendered as Fame Point. The first keeper, James Ascah, held the post until 1913.

The site welcomes visitors during the warmer months and offers guided tours through the tower along with information about the history of radio communication at this location. Walking trails connect the lighthouse to the surrounding hills and shore, allowing exploration on foot.

In 1904 the site became Canada's first maritime wireless telegraphy station, built by Joseph Barridon and Hugh Lyle for the Marconi company. On 25 June 1904 its operators, call sign VCG, exchanged the country's first coastal-to-ship radio message with the passing vessel Parisian.
