Standing 65 meters tall and completed in 1897, the Phare d’Eckmühl in Penmarch is among the most impressive lighthouses along the Brittany coast. Built from Kersanton granite and featuring an opulent interior with marble stairs, it guides ships around the rocky Saint-Guénolé coastline. Visitors can climb 307 steps to reach the panoramic vantage point, offering mesmerizing views of the Atlantic and the rugged shoreline. The adjoining museum showcases the maritime heritage of the region, while local markets and seafood restaurants nearby provide a taste of authentic Breton culture. Summer hours vary, so check schedules carefully.
