A foghorn was installed in 1952, replaced in 1993 by an electric beacon.[1] The newer lighthouse is {{convert|82.5|m}} tall, made of blocks of granite. The external face is a truncated cone; the interior face is cylindrical, lined with 12,500 opaline glass tiles made by Saint-Gobain.[1] There are five steps to the front door; inside, 360 steps of stone and 32 of iron lead to the lamp platform.[1] The electric lamp was installed in 1952 on the original mechanical turning plate, sitting in a bath of mercury.[1] The plate was replaced with an electric motor in 1983.[1] The lamp has four lenses with a focal length of 0.5m.[1] The twin beam gives a white flash every 5 seconds, visible for {{convert|27|nmi}}.[1] Electrical generators were installed in 1959, supplemented in 1967–1994 by two wind turbines.[1] The light and rotation are activated automatically by a photoelectric sensor.[1] Although the lighthouse is automated, the site is still manned.[8] The island is open to the public from April to September, as is the lighthouse, by appointment.[1] The number of visitors was 5,944 in 2003; 5,974 in 2004; 7,371 in 2005.[9] See also{{stack|{{Portal|France}}}}
