The Ploumanac'h Lighthouse, officially known as Mean Ruz Lighthouse, is an active navigational beacon constructed in 1944 in Perros-Guirec, Côtes-d'Armor, France. Designed by Henry Auffret and Joël Hardion, the structure rises 15 meters and is built of pink granite, a distinctive material that reflects the local geology of the Breton coast. The lighthouse marks the entrance to the channel leading to the port of Ploumanac'h and remains closed to the public. It is listed in the general inventory of French cultural heritage.
