September 23, 2025,Bastia Rundgang

At the end of our Corsica trip, we visited Bastia.
Until Napoleon, it was the capital of Corsica.
Worth seeing are the old town (Terra Vecchia), with the third-largest square in France, as well as the citadel area and its surroundings, as well as the old harbor.
From here, you can also see the island of Elba, among other places.
