Napoleon can be found on every corner in Ajaccio :-)

French Cardinal Joseph Fesch was born on January 3, 1763, in Ajaccio, Corsica. He was the half-brother of Napoleon's mother, Letizia Bonaparte. Fesch died in Rome on May 13, 1839. He was a passionate art collector, particularly of Italian paintings. Part of his art collection was bequeathed to the city of Ajaccio and formed the basis of today's Palais Fesch – Musée des Beaux-Arts, located on Rue du Cardinal Fesch in Ajaccio.

Great area with beautiful sandy beaches.

narrow city beach often used by cruise tourists

A relatively narrow strip of beach, which, due to its proximity to the port, is often used by cruise ship passengers. Accordingly, it can get quite crowded here.

It is located south of Ajaccio's old town, at the city's harbor, directly on the Mediterranean coast. The fortifications were built from 1492 under Genoese rule. They were intended to protect the city from sea attacks. In 1502/03, a moat with a drawbridge was built, and the city wall around Ajaccio was completed. During World War II, the citadel was used as a prison. At the west entrance to the citadel is a monument to the French general Pierre Lelong.
