This lighthouse offers an exceptional panorama from the top of its 183 steps

The only lighthouse in the Landes region was built in 1862 by decree of Napoleon III, almost a kilometer from the ocean on a 12-meter-high dune! And with its 38-metre tower, it raises its lantern 50 metres above sea level. From the top of its 183 steps, the Contis lighthouse offers an exceptional panorama. First put into service in 1863, it was lit by a mercury lamp and is now lit by a halogen lamp. Reservations (off-season) and information from Saint-Julien-en-Born town hall.

C'est le seul phare du département et il vaut le détour. Il permet d'avoir une vue panoramique sur la forêt des Landes et l'océan. La montée est impressionnante, une autre époque. Au pied du phare, il y a une exposition sur le gemmage. Si vous visitez ce phare et qu'il y a une démonstration de gemmage programmée, je vous conseille d'y assister. Vous passerez un sympathique moment tout en apprenant l'histoire de cette profession pratiquement disparue. Un bon moment de détente.

La visite de ce monument est à faire pour ceux qui souhaite surplomber la forêt landaise d'un côté, la mer de l'autre. La vue est magnifique!
