Fue de Hourdel

Saint-Valéry-sur-Somme, France

This unusual modern tower was designed by Cahon et Barrère, architects. The original 10 m (33 ft) wood lighthouse was replaced in 1905 by a cast iron tower of the same height; that lighthouse, like so many others on this coast, was destroyed during World War II. Located just off the beach at the south side of the entrance to the Somme.

Number: FRA 318
Build: 1948
Construction: concrete
Height: 18 m
