Built in 1744, this building bears witness to the presence of customs officers who once monitored the coast from invaders, brigands and smugglers. It could accommodate up to four guards. Today, only its walls and its history remain.

Nice to rest with a spectacular view or to shelter in the rain.

Hiking

Built in 1744 to serve as a relay in the emission of signals between the guardhouses of Lavillo (about 1.5 km to the west) and Théven Bras (about 1.5 km to the east, now disappeared), in the event of a threat from enemy ships. Smaller than the other two, which could house about twenty militiamen responsible for patrolling, the Amiets guardhouse only housed 3 or 4 lookouts.
