    During the Second World War, the Germans turned the Creac'h-Maout semaphore, a light signal station for shipping, into a coastal surveillance and defense base by building important fortifications there. Shortly before the American invasion in early August 1944, many terrible tragedies occurred here, the sequence of which is described in detail in French on a memorial plaque.
