This lighthouse made of pink granite is placed in the middle of the sculptures formed by the erosion of the cooled magma, associated with the actions of rain, wind, spray and salt. It takes its name from the Breton MEN RUZ, which means Red Rock. T inhabitants of Perros-Guirec and Trégastel made a petition in 1856 to request its construction, and thus indicate the pass leading to the port of Ploumanac'h in the town of Perros-Guirec. The lighthouse that we can see today was rebuilt in 1948, after the destruction of the original one (in gray granite) by German troops.

The early morning sky and the blue sea give it its place.

A few words about the author

Philip was born on the banks of the Loire river, and discovered La Trinité-sur-Mer when he was 4 years old. This is where his father gave him his first passion: sailing. The need of sea will not leave him anymore! At 9, he discovered his second passion: the photo thanks to his paternal grandmother who offered him his first camera. In the early 80's, Philip decided to live with his two passions: photographing to navigate and navigate to photographing. Named Painter of the French Navy in 1991, he testifies to the major events related to the sea world in order to preserve the memory of our contemporary maritimity, as had wished Richelieu creating the Corps of Painters of the Navy. Philip, as a sailor-photographer, has only one leitmotiv: to have every day a new desire of image to take and to share with you. For more information : www.plisson.com
