Meneham Village and Guardhouse

Highlight • Historical Site

The Meneham site looks great. This hamlet is characterized by its position among the blocks of rocks. Overhanging 21 meters above sea level, it offers a wide view towards the Pontusval lighthouse in Plouénour-Brignogan-Plages as far as that of Île Virginie in Plouguerneau.

The guardhouse was built between the rocks in 1756, while the village developed from the 19th century to accommodate customs officers, then workers.

Today, the site is the subject of particular attention for its preservation. A collective of associations provides activities throughout the year.

Pontusval lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Framed by jagged rocks and overseeing a sandy beach whose turquoise waters are strewn with boulders, he tells stories of ancient times, of ships and storms.

The lighthouse, a notable landmark along the GR34 Brignogan-Plages hiking trail, is not only a historical monument but also a vivid testimony to the region's maritime heritage. It was built on the top of Beg-Pol, a site carefully chosen because of the many shipwrecks caused by the rocky terrain. On September 15, 1869, its light shone in the darkness for the first time and showed ships the safe way.

Since then, at a height of 14.5 meters, it has defied the tides and unpredictable weather. It's no wonder it's considered the most photographed lighthouse in Brittany and even Europe. Its impressive presence combined with the natural beauty of its surroundings makes it an essential photo opportunity and a highlight of the Côte des Légendes.

It is still the V45 that accompanies you to discover the rock structures that make up North Brittany.

In my eyes, there is no reason to deviate from it, the landscapes are so extraordinary
