Built between 1829 and 1834, the Gatteville lighthouse is the 2nd largest lighthouse in France with 75 m high. The construction of this "stone candle" required 11,000 blocks of granite representing 7,400 tons. After climbing a staircase of 365 steps lit by 52 windows, visitors can admire the magnificent panorama of the Val de Saire and the Channel Sea.
