Cassis Lighthouse, Lighthouse at Cassis harbor, France
The Cassis Lighthouse stands at the entrance of the harbor, constructed from local stone and serving as a maritime navigation point in the Mediterranean.
The original lighthouse was destroyed in 1944 during World War II, leading to its reconstruction in 1946 by local quarry workers.
The lighthouse functions as a central element of Cassis maritime heritage, positioned within the boundaries of Calanques National Park.
Located 3 kilometers from Cassis train station, the lighthouse remains accessible through regular public transportation connections from Marseille.
The structure, built entirely from Cassis stone, demonstrates exceptional durability against Mediterranean storm waves and harsh weather conditions.
