The museum of the lighthouses and beacons could only be installed in Ouessant. Indeed, the outskirts of the island are known to all sailors of the world as a result of their dangerousness. Ouessant has 5 lighthouses, many beacons and land marks helping in navigation. The museum, set up in the former power station of the Créac’h lighthouse, presents the history of marine aids. It also evokes the many shipwrecks which took place in the vicinity and the epic construction of some monuments like La Jument lighthouse. Several Fresnel lenses and other optical objects are exhibited. Several models and audiovisual documents complement the visit. It is a museum for those who are passionate about lighthouses but also for curious people whom this field puzzles.

Le musée (un peu petit à mon goût) est vraiment situé dans un cadre magnifique, que ce soit de l'extérieur ou de l'intérieur! Les histoires racontées à l'intérieur du musée rendent bien hommage aux hommes et femmes de la mer!

Visite et découverte d'un milieu peu connu qui montre le courage de ces hommes qui risquaient leur vie et vivaient dans un monde à part, isolés et souvent confrontés à de terribles tempêtes. Les témoignages et films sont intéressants. Bien placé puisque dans le phare du Créac'h. Possibilité d'acheter un billet conjoint avec l'éco musée.

Voyage exceptionnel dans le monde des phares et des hommes qui les ont fait vivre souvent au péril de leur vie.
L'environnement du phare du Creach fait partie pour moi des sites les plus impressionnants que j'ai vu.
