Here originally was lied the major sea route where merchant ships and fishing vessels patrolled to Spain and to the South of France. There were a lot of wreckages because of the dangerous chain of the coral reefs called Chaussée de Sein. In 1869 there were decided to make this piece of crucial sea route safer and to build two lighthouses – La Vieille and Tevennec. These lighthouses were like the gate for vessels. The ships have to head on accurately between the lighthouses in order to escape collisions with reefs. However, the most interesting lighthouse for tourists is Tevennec. A great number of chilling stories are connected with it. All light-keepers got mad for some unknown reason. The most scaring story is connected with a spouse, who lived for a short period of time in the lighthouse. When the man has died, the woman had to put his body in the full with the water bath and waited for three months because it was impossible to get quickly to the lighthouse.
