The Rocher de la Vierge is one of Biarritz's landmarks

The Rocher de la Vierge is one of Biarritz's landmarks. On the initiative of Napoleon III, this rock was bored to serve as an anchorage point for a dike protecting a port of refuge. It owes its current name to the statue of the Virgin Mary erected on its summit in 1865. It was intended to welcome sailors returning to port. The old wooden footbridge linking it to the shore has disappeared, to be replaced by a steel footbridge built by Eiffel, more resistant to the repeated assaults of the waves. All that remains today is this rock.

A ne pas manque lors d'un séjour à Biarritz. La visite du rocher est à effectuer de préférence au coucher su soleil, pour des photos magnifiques.

Unmissable for the souvenir photos if you go in the corner. Favour at sunset (and even more at sunrise, there are less tourists!).
