El Hank Lighthouse

It is managed by the Port and Maritime Authority within the Ministry of Equipment, Transport, Logistics and Water.

It was restored by the French architect Albert Laprade who redesigned the ridge and landscaped its surroundings in 1916,[2] inspired by the ancient minarets.

It came into operation in 1920 and helped the development of the city of Casablanca, as it facilitated access to the port, which was previously considered dangerous.

It is equipped with a 2nd order Fresnel lens and the lighting apparatus has 6 panels of 0.70 m, rotating on mercury.

With an intensity equivalent to 2.1 million candelas, the lighthouse has a luminous range of 30 nautical miles (about 55 kilometers).
