Ploumanac'h lighthouse, Stone lighthouse in Ploumanac'h, France.

The Ploumanac'h lighthouse rises 15 meters above the Brittany coast, built from stone and standing among natural pink granite formations.

Following its destruction during World War II, architects Henry Auffret and Joel Hardion rebuilt the lighthouse in 1946 to maintain maritime safety.

Artist Isidore Odorico integrated multicoloured mosaics into the lighthouse design, combining maritime functionality with artistic elements from the region.

The lighthouse remains open continuously throughout Sundays, allowing visitors to explore the structure and surrounding coastal pathways at their convenience.

The lighthouse stands on a foundation of layered pink granite clusters, creating a natural integration with the distinctive geological formations of the coast.
