Aix island lighthouses, Twin lighthouses at Île-d'Aix, France.
The two 25-meter tall lighthouses stand as maritime navigation points between the islands of Oléron and Ré on the Atlantic coast.
The lighthouses received official recognition as historical monuments in April 2011, marking their significance in French maritime navigation heritage.
These maritime structures represent the traditional French coastal architecture and demonstrate the importance of naval safety in the region.
Located at coordinates 46°0'36.0"N and 1°10'41.0"W, the lighthouses guide vessels through the waters of Charente-Maritime throughout the year.
The dual lighthouse configuration creates an alignment system that helps ships navigate the specific channel between the two neighboring islands.
