The first dike, built in 1833, is only visible at low tide: it was swept away by a storm during its first winter! The second, 600m long and set back, has been standing since 1836.

Before the Revolution, mills were a privilege of the nobility: a "banality" that obliged peasants to use the lord's mill. More than a dozen mills were in operation in Guissény at the time.
