Former residence of Napoleon I and Napoleon III, the castle was burned down in 1978. It is currently being restored by the Collectivity of Corsica.

Very old castle, which was destroyed by the fire in 1978. Constructed of stones from a building in Paris that was also destroyed. Only accessible via a long access road (cars forbidden). At the moment you can neither enter nor visit it. One can only guess what a grandiose view one had here in the past. Today everything overgrown.

For road traffic blocked asphalt road, therefore particularly suitable as a racing bike highlight.
