Diélette Feu Postérieur Lighthouse
Location & Light Range
About Diélette Feu Postérieur Lighthouse
The Diélette Feu Postérieur light was first lit in 1876 from the upper window of a keeper's house. This 1-1/2 story structure was built in the same year. The light served as the rear range light, situated 466 meters behind its front counterpart. This positioning helped guide vessels approaching the harbor at Diélette. The light remained operational for over a century. It was deactivated in the late 1990s when the front light was updated to a sector light.
Why it matters: This rear range light was essential for precise navigation into Diélette harbor, creating a critical alignment with the front light for safe passage.
