This massive MP3 concrete tower was built by forced labour under the German occupying power in 1943. Originally, it was intended as a naval range-finding position to observe enemy ships and was to be part of a network with five other similar towers placed around the island. The rounded front section was for observation and the rear section for accommodation and target plotting. There are four floors to explore with information boards. On a clear day, the observation levels, one of which has a telescope, offers amazing views to France.
