A city with a rich historical past and an important cultural heritage, Sartène is full of little nooks and crannies hidden in its picturesque streets. This is a good reason to linger on its architecture, its monuments, its square and its treasures! You will see that it is not for nothing that Prosper Mérimée nicknamed it “The most Corsican of Corsican towns”.
The exploration of the medieval city is structured around 15 points which retrace the most significant events in history which have marked its past. The tour of Sartène with audio guide begins on Place Porta, this is the place where tourists and locals mix to go to market, have a drink in one of the many cafes, and meet up with friends. Its current appearance does not suggest the tragedies of which it has been the scene: ruthless vendettas, Barbary invasions...
