    A funeral lantern (French: Lanterne des morts) is a masonry funeral tower, a structure used to escort the deceased. It can be found in various forms in France and is usually a slender tower. The structure is hollow and has a superstructure with at least three openings. At nightfall, a light is raised into this—usually by a pulley system—which is believed to guide the souls of the deceased. Source: Wikipedia
