Zabytkowa latarnia morska Cordouan - Le Figaro
Cordouan lighthouse is an active lighthouse located 7 kilometres (4.3 miles) at sea, near the mouth of the Gironde estuary in France. At a height of 223 feet (68 m), it is the tenth-tallest "traditional lighthouse" in the world. The Tour de Cordouan, the 'Patriarch of Lighthouses', is by far the oldest lighthouse in France. It was designed by leading Paris architect Louis de Foix, and is something of a Renaissance masterpiece, an amalgam of royal palace, cathedral and fort. Started in 1584 and finished in 1611, it still stands today. Three stories were added in the 18th century. It is a listed monument since 1862. Le phare de Cordouan est un phare situe a sept kilometres en mer sur le plateau de Cordouan, a l'embouchure de l'estuaire de la Gironde, estuaire forme par la confluence de la Garonne et de la Dordogne, donnant dans l'ocean Atlantique.
