Fotografie + English: France-000584 - Old Honfleur Lighthouse (Taken on June 23, 2014, Sony NEX-7)
* Old Honfleur Lighthouse built in 1843 (station established 1806).
* Inactive since 1908. 25&nbsp;m (82&nbsp;ft) unpainted round masonry tower with gallery; lantern removed. Built at the edge of the estuary near the hospital, the lighthouse now stands some distance from the shore, apparently because land has been filled since it was built. It was replaced by the Falaise des Fonds lighthouse in 1908. In 1886, the lighthouse was the subject of a well-known pointillist (to paint small dots) painting by Georges Seurat. Located on the D513 highway at the northwest edge of Honfleur.
