Village of Haute-Corse, between sea and mountains, Patrimonio takes place just a few kilometers from Saint-Florent, about fifteen kilometers from Bastia and its tourist sites. It is located in the region of Nebbio, and is an integral part of the Canton of Conca-d'Oro.

The village of Patrimonio has a very old human occupation, with traces dating especially from the Neolithic, as evidenced by the statue-menhir found nearby. From Antiquity, it was particularly appreciated for its wines whose production lasted for centuries. Under Genoese domination from the 13th century, the Corsican commune developed over the centuries, becoming today a popular and popular tourist site.

Its natural heritage, its AOC wine, its AOC muscat, or its traditions charm many visitors every year on the Island of Beauty.

Things to see and do

Baroque style, the church San Martinu is now classified as an historic monument. It presents in its interior two paintings classified as an object, a Madonna and Child between St. John the Baptist and St. Lawrence of Badarocco Giuseppe, and The Apostles around the sarcophagus of the Virgin of the seventeenth century.

Small chapel located in the heart of the village of Patrimonio, Santa Maria Assunta has a simple Romanesque style, including a main facade decorated with arcature. The building was restored entirely at the beginning of the century.

While strolling in the village, do not miss to admire the Roman bridge, the amphitheater located on the road towards the church, or the statue-menhir found in the mid-1960s. It takes place in the middle of the Amphitheater of greenery.

But it is for its environmental heritage and its preserved landscapes that Patrimonio is especially appreciated. Many hiking trails allow you to admire Mount San Columbano or the San Bernardino Pass. It is also possible to walk among the vineyards on foot or by bike. Do not miss the asylatic ridges of Cap Corse, the limestone hills of Saint-Florent stretching to Patrimonio, the Ponte Albino or the Punta Vecchiaia and its maquis high. The U San Martinu road, thirty kilometers long, must be laid out to connect Ersa to Patrimonio, passing through the peaks of Cap Corse.
