If so many people have to hurry up so fast to get upstairs, wouldn't it be better to install an elevator?

Oh no, i don't think so, Snowman, going down the stairs is only for pussies :lol:

Thanks, sure Eckmühl is a pretty lighthouse, but here, the most mythical lighthouse will ever remain Ar-Men , (The Stone in Breton),
the legendary "Hell of the hells".





" There is somebody in me who does not have to go out from here alive. "
Jean-Pierre Abraham
Keeper of the lighthouse from 1961 till 1964
Quote from his book Armen


J'aime ces géants des mers,
cyclopes solitaires ,
qui au marin perdu redonnent du courage
et au présomptueux ordonnent : "Passe au large !"
