Port Haliguen
The Port-Haliguen in Quiberon , a French port city in the Morbihan department in the Brittany region , is a district and a port of the city.
Since 1769, the residents of Port-Haliguen tried to rebuild the port, which should better protect their fishing boats. It was finally rebuilt and expanded in 1848 according to plans by the engineer Pichot. Convicts who were sentenced to forced labor were given the construction work.
In the 1960s, the port facility was brought up to date and the lighthouse was modernized.
