Opposite the Mahatma Gandhi statue on Rock Beach, you will find the historic Lighthouse in Pondicherry. This lighthouse was constructed by the French rulers during the 19th century and is currently undergoing extensive renovation. Notably, this lighthouse has a rich history of illumination. Initially, it was lit by oil lamps, and later, it was upgraded to electrical lamps. Access to the interior is restricted to the public during this restoration phase. However, even from the outside, the evening view of this remarkable structure is worth admiring. It adds to the charm of the Rock Beach area, making it a must-see destination during your visit to Pondicherry.

It's a nice lighthouse near Rock beach. I guess they repainted the whole thing and it looks as good as new now. Inside entry is not allowed so enjoy your view of the tower from outside.

Oldest light house in Puducherry which is situated on beach promenade. No option to go inside, just to see from outside.The premises was clean and nice and near to beach. It is nearby the statue of Mahatma Gandhi.

You will not be allowed inside of this Rock beach old light house. But the evening view from the outside is also good to watch. And this light house is opposite to the Rock beach Mahatma Gandhi statue.

Oldest ligthouse in Pondicherry which was built during 19th century by french rulers . Now Pondicherry government started renovating this Lighthouse yet to open for public for visiting. Initially they have started with oil lamps and laterally they have converted to electrical lamps.

We didn't go inside this light house but this looked very beautiful. This is a white coloured tower exactly opposite to Rock Beach. This beach looks like Marine drive as you have place to sit and go to the beach as well. You get to collect mesmerizing shells not just here but everywhere in Pudhucherry beaches. It was fun to play in the salty water but it gets very sunny early in the morning as well this time in July too.

Among all the popular tourist places in Pondicherry, Lighthouse is one such place that has gained everyone's attention from far and wide. This city has two lighthouses and both stand out among the tourists for their significance. Though the Old Lighthouse is not accessible to the public now until renovations are complete, the new one serves the purpose for all those who come here to witness a panoramic view of the town from the top.
