Port Manec'h lighthouse, Stone lighthouse in Finistère, France.
The Port Manec'h lighthouse features a white cylindrical tower topped with a red lantern, standing at a height of 8 meters near the Aven river mouth.
Construction of the lighthouse took place between 1866 and 1867, following several strikes by masons who demanded better wages for their stone masonry work.
The name Port Manec'h appears in red letters on the lighthouse structure, making it recognizable to maritime vessels approaching from the Atlantic Ocean.
The lighthouse emits four flashing signals every 12 seconds, displaying white, red, and green luminous sectors to guide maritime navigation in the surrounding waters.
A keeper's house remains on the lighthouse grounds, with both structures maintained as state property while continuing to serve maritime safety functions.
