Phare de Port-la-Nouvelle, Mediterranean lighthouse in Port-la-Nouvelle, France
The Port-la-Nouvelle lighthouse stands 43 meters tall on the Mediterranean coast, featuring a robust stone structure with a distinctive Fresnel lens system.
Built in the late 19th century, this lighthouse was established to prevent shipwrecks and improve maritime safety along the sandy coastline of Aude.
The lighthouse represents the maritime heritage of Port-la-Nouvelle, serving as a central element in local festivals and educational programs about navigation.
Located near the town center, the lighthouse offers guided tours where visitors can learn about its operation and climb to the observation platform.
The automated beacon system emits specific light patterns visible from several kilometers at sea, guiding vessels through Mediterranean waters.
