A neo-Breton-style lighthouse on the island of Bréhat, offering panoramic views of the rugged coastline.

Located at the northern tip of the island, the lighthouse takes its name from the Breton word penn, meaning head or point. Built in 1860, it was originally a square turret attached to a main building. For forty years, until 1933, it was guarded by Marie-Perrine Durand, France's first female lighthouse keeper. Destroyed by the Germans in 1944, it was rebuilt in 1948 and fully automated. The neo-Breton-style tower stands on a terrace of masonry pebbles, offering a panoramic view of the rugged coastline.

Malgré une météo peu clémente le détour jusqu'au phare fût une agréable surprise. Le paysage y est magnifique. Un passage fortement recommandé pour les amoureux des paysages époustouflants.

Une vue panoramique magnifique !!!
Ne pas hésiter à aller jusqu'au nord de l'île. Dommage que le phare ne se visite pas.

N'hésitez à pousser la ballade jusqu'au nord de l'île pour atteindre le phare. Sauvage. De très belles couleurs surtout au moment du coucher de soleil.

S'il y a un phare à atteindre sur cette île c'est bien celui-ci. Malgré le temps pluvieux, nous avons adoré ce lieu. La couleur de la roche y est pour beaucoup. Magnifique! dommage que nous ayons pas vu ces roches sous le soleil, j'imagine comme celà dois être beau! Le phare est niché au bout du bout de l'île au nord mais Courrez y!
