The Cordouan Lighthouse
After more than 400 years of existence, the Cordouan Lighthouse, the "King of Lighthouses," continues to guide sailors navigating the Gironde Estuary. Strong winds and waves constantly batter the lighthouse, which has been maintained by keepers 24/7 since its construction in 1611.
Taking a guided tour of the Cordouan Lighthouse is a unique opportunity to interact with the keepers, who are passionate about France's oldest lighthouse still in operation.
