Menorca: Punta Nati.
The lighthouse was built in 1912 after the shipwreck in 1910 of the French steamship Général Chanzy, which cost the lives of all the crew and passengers except one. The lighthouse became operational in 1913. It was inhabited until the second half of the 20th century.
The structure in the foreground is one of two bunkers built during the Spanish Civil War.
