The Citadel of Saint-Florent is an impressive, historic fortress overlooking the city's picturesque harbor. Built in the 15th century (from 1440/39) by the Genoese under Giano Campofregoso, it was expanded in the 16th and 17th centuries with two round towers and a striking square tower structure. Architecture: The cylindrical main structure with two crescent-shaped towers and a square keep is striking – a masterpiece of military architecture. Strategic Location: It maintained a view and control over the Gulf of Saint-Florent and protected important trade routes, as well as Bastia in the background. Historical Significance: It played a central role in several sieges (1553–54), and was the site of Pascal Paoli's exile in 1795. It was later converted into a garrison and gendarmerie base. Damaged during World War II Today: Municipal property since 1986, protected as a historic monument since 1991/94; serves as a cultural space with summer exhibitions and music festivals, with magnificent panoramic views. In brief: The Citadel of Saint-Florent is a massive, circular Genoese fortress with three towers, strategically located above the town. It reflects centuries of turbulent Corsican history and today offers cultural uses as well as spectacular views of the harbor and gulf.

Saint-Florent is also known as "the Corsican Saint-Tropez" because of its Mediterranean flair. In the 1970s, Saint-Florent was a place for the jet set. The town is located high in the northwest of the island of Corsica on the Gulf of the same name between the almost uninhabited Désert des Agriates and Cap Corse.

Saint-Florent dates back to a small settlement that once arose in the protection area of the Genoese round fortress. The citadel was built by the Genoese in 1440 and served as the seat of the Bishop of Nebbio and the governor's palace until the 18th century. The small Pianese church from the 12th century, Santa Maria Assunta, was built as a cathedral for the then diocese of Nebbio.

Although malaria raged devastatingly, the town was fiercely fought over by the French, Genoese and Corsicans in the 16th century. However, little remains of the fortress built in 1439, apart from the round keep. The fortress itself was demolished in the 17th century when Genoa's rule seemed secure and Saint-Florent no longer had any strategic importance. The town experienced a new growth spurt after Napoleon III ordered the draining of the swamps, thus eradicating the cause of malaria.
