Archaeological finds, such as the Lady of Bonifacio, prove that the area was inhabited in prehistoric times. It was officially founded in 828 by the Tuscan Count Bonifacio II. In 1187, the Genoese managed to take the city by ruse, bringing with them their Ligurian language, which is still spoken today. Apart from an interruption in the years from 1553 to 1559 (Sampiero Corso), Bonifacio remained in Genoese hands until 1768. Bonifacio has been under French rule since 1768. In 1793, Napoleon prepared the failed invasion of Sardinia here. During the Second World War, Bonifacio, like all of Corsica, was occupied by German and Italian troops in 1942.
