Lighthouse that measures 51 meters and has 271 steps in Calais.

A lighthouse existed on top of the Watchtower since 1818. The one we know today was decided by Louis-Philippe in his plan to improve French ports. Put into service in 1848, the monument resisted the bombing of the city during the Second World War. It is 51 metres high and you will have to climb its 271 steps to enjoy the view. On a clear day, the range of the lamp is 43 kilometres! At the lighthouse, visits are made by friendly young people who are really passionate about the work of the Opale Tour association.

L'ascension des nombreuses marches nous mène à une belle vue sur la ville. On apprend que chaque phare a son propre code de lumière. La visite est succinte: musée intérieur assez petit
