Now decommissioned and transformed into a dwelling, the Semaphore of Longue-sur-Mer ensured the continuity of surveillance of the Bessin coast. A Kriegsmarine surveillance point during the Second World War, it has since been replaced by the Port-en-Bessin Semaphore located a few kilometers away.

The privately owned building is probably being renovated, but looks like Villa Kunterbunt. We passed by by chance because we had lost the bike path.
