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.

Le ciel étant légèrement brumeux, nous n’avons malheureusement pas aperçu les côtes anglaises.
L’accueil des bénévoles est parfait, tout comme leurs explications. Merci à eux d’entretenir notre beau patrimoine.
