The Patiras lighthouse was built under Napoleon III on the island of Patiras, in the Gironde estuary, and was lighted on 20 July 1879. It culminates at 46 meters above sea level, and to reach its lens you must climb 133 steps. It was switched off in 1992, and after being restored it can now accommodate day visitors for iodine seminars.
Its spiral staircase will perfectly decorate your home!

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
