The Héaux de Bréhat is an active lighthouse in Côtes-d'Armor, France, located near the Île-de-Bréhat and marking the entrance to the island from the Trieux channel. Designed by French engineer Léonce Reynaud and completed in 1840, this stone structure rises 47.4 meters above the reefs of Tréguier on the western end of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc. Strategically positioned near the Sillon de Talbert, it guides mariners navigating these treacherous waters. The lighthouse remains operational but is closed to the public and was designated a monument historique in 2011.
