| Description |
PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks. This is at the Le Musée des Pionniers Museum. This lighthouse was built in 1912 on the Grand-Digue wharf and had a mast 8 to 9 meters (28 to 30ft) high on the top from which a kerosene lantern was hoisted up each night and lowered each morning by ropes and pulleys. In 1950, the lighthouse was modernized and the energy was provided by battery. After the fisherman had to move to another deeper wharf, the wharf became unsafe. The lighthouse was moved then used to shelter nets and fishing gear for almost 40 years. In 2006, the lighthouse became a heritage object; it was renovated and placed on a new wharf to exhibit fishing materials and tell its story. In 2006 it was donated to the Le Musée des Pionniers Museum and placed on display in 2007. It is the only remains example of this style of light. |
