The tower of a Christian church is usually crowned with a cross – symbolizing the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ – or a rooster – symbolizing the denial of Jesus by the Apostle Peter. In this chapel, dedicated to "Notre-Damé" ("Our Lady"), the viewer instead finds a gilded statue of the Virgin Mary at the top. From this prominent position, it overlooks land and sea. The builders surely understood this primarily as a sign of blessing the earth and water – and especially the people who sail the sea.

The first semaphore in Fécamp was built in 1808: it is a brick building erected near the edge of the cliff. It has a characteristic hexagonal roof from which the semaphore mast rose. The current semaphore has been located since 1904 in the stone tower of the former "Lighthouse of the Virgin" built in 1834 and is about 117 meters above sea level.
