Plaque to Henri Toivonen, who died in the Lancia Delta S4 during the Rally de Corse trials, a death that also decreed the death of the dangerous Group B.

look up the guy on wikipedia, he was quite an important character during the napoleonic period

Very nice with its panoramic view next to the citadel

If you walk past his enclosure and dismount, he will show you his exuberant joy, especially if you give him some treats 😂😂😂

Feel free to climb the few steps that lead to the base of the statue on foot. An explanatory plaque is located at the base.

On his way to England, Paoli was welcomed and honored throughout Europe as a freedom hero. He met, among others, Joseph II and Goethe, who later described this encounter in Poetry and Truth:[2] Paoli's life was marked by the struggle for the goal of a united Corsican nation. To this end, he entered into varying alliances with France and England and maintained contacts with Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Frederick the Great, Catherine II of Russia, the Pope, the young United States of America, the Turkish Sultan, and the Bey of Tunis.

Pasquale Paoli was born in 1725 in Stretta, in the municipality of Morosaglia, Corsica. His father, General Giacinto Paoli, was a kind of prime minister in the short-lived Kingdom of Corsica under King Theodore I of Corsica and, in 1739, went into exile in Naples with his youngest son, Pasquale. In 1755, Paoli returned to Corsica as a 30-year-old ensign in the King's Corsican Guard and, as commander at the head of the Corsican guerrillas, fought the Genoese. He succeeded in expelling them from the interior and entrenching them in a few port cities. In the same year, Paoli gave Corsica a democratic constitution and temporarily ruled Corsica. He named Corte its capital. Among other things, he was friends with the Buonaparte family, who fought with him against the Corsican enemy Marius Matra. Carlo di Buonaparte, Napoleon's father, collaborated on a Corsican constitution and became Paoli's right-hand man. When the Genoese ceded the island to France on May 15, 1768, pending redemption, Paoli fought the French. In 1768, the French, who had landed with 10,000 men, were forced to withdraw. A year later, however, 22,000 men landed under the command of the Comte de Vaux and defeated the Corsicans in the Battle of Ponte Novu on May 9, 1769. Paoli laid down his arms and chose exile. In 1790, the revolutionary National Assembly voted for the final annexation of Corsica to France.

Nice and cheap camping spot, went there for a night during our corse bike packing trip with bikes and tent, everything was rudimentary but totally fine.
