A 63-metre-high lighthouse in Dunkirk, built on the ruins of a fort built by Vauban.
The ascent of the Risban lighthouse is superb. You will just have to make a little effort to face the 276 steps. Built on the ruins of a fort built by Vauban, the lighthouse was put into service in 1843. At 63 metres, it is the highest lighthouse in France in its category. Its now automatic light has a range of 26 miles (about 48 km). Although it suffered during the Second World War, it has since been restored. Night visits are sometimes organised and it is an invitation to see beauty where you don't necessarily expect it.
