    Pointe des Corbeaux is the easternmost point of the island. Over the centuries, constructions have succeeded on this point which looks towards the continent.

    From prehistory to the 17th century, a megalith stood there. In 1657, a redoubt (small independent fortification) was built there. Two centuries later, in 1862, it was razed to allow the construction of a lighthouse. The latter was dynamited in 1944 to be rebuilt six years later.

    Notably, the last lighthouse keeper was a female keeper.
