Le Hourdel Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

In 1943, a military base was installed by General Erwin Rommel, in charge of the defense of the Atlantic Wall on the Northwest. He transformed the beach into a vast construction site: minefield, construction of blockhouses, IEDs. in August 1944, following the landing of the Allied forces in Normandy, the German troops were ordered to withdraw. they take the time to dynamite the lighthouses, destroy their installations and devastate the Hameau du Hourdel.

The great classic of a visit to St-Valéry-sur-Somme is to take the train to go to Crotoy. The journey crosses the lock bridge at Saint-Valery-sur-Somme and goes around the bay and the marshes, observing swans, herons, egrets, moorhens and all kinds of ducks. Allow 1 hour for the journey. The landscapes are surprising, especially the large expanses of salt meadows where flocks of sheep graze.
