About Môle Graveleau Range Rear Lighthouse
This operational, cylindrical skeletal tower stands 20 meters tall and is constructed of steel. It is painted white with a blue band at the top. The Môle Graveleau Range Rear light emits a quick flashing red light. It serves as the rear light in a range system, working with a front light to create a precise alignment for mariners. The light has a geographic range of 13.6 nautical miles. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This rear range light is indispensable for safe navigation within the Port de Fos, providing a critical alignment for vessels maneuvering through the port's basins.
