Fortifications on the island of Aix with the island's two lighthouses. The lighthouses were used to guide ships safely through the shallow and sometimes dangerous waters around the island. As access to the Rochefort naval arsenal had to be well protected and controlled, several strategic light points were set up. Fort de la Rade, Île-d'Aix, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France
