About Saint-Michel Range Rear Lighthouse
This square skeletal mast, built in 2006, stands 25 meters tall and is painted orange with a black vertical stripe. It carries a trapezoidal daymark. The light emits a continuous white beam, visible for nearly 20 nautical miles. Located in a farm field, the structure is situated 1738 meters southwest of the front range light. The station was originally established in 1928, with the current tower erected in 2006. Its focal plane reaches 57 meters above sea level.
Why it matters: This rear range light aids vessels navigating a long reach on the south side of the Île d'Orléans. Working with its front light, it provides mariners with precise course alignment.
