Ajaccio

Ajaccio is best known in Corsica for being the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte. It occupies the shore of the Gulf of Ajaccio on Corsica’s Mediterranean west coast, with the Îles Sanguinaires lying beyond the city to the west. Maison Bonaparte, the Bonaparte family home in the old town, is now a national museum devoted to the emperor and his family. Napoleon was baptised at Ajaccio Cathedral, while the waterfront and Genoese citadel recall the port’s long strategic role.
