It is advisable to park your car on the marina or in the car park at the bottom of the citadel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The lower part<\/strong>With the navy, it's a tourist and commercial sector that has retained a certain charm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The citadel<\/strong> is of some historical and architectural interest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left;\" title=\"The citadel of Calvi\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/citadelle-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"The citadel of Calvi\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\">At the foot of the fortifications stands a statue of Christopher Columbus, a Genoese adventurer and Calvinese by birth. Some people believe that he was born in the citadel (see the ruins labelled \"Christopher Columbus's house\"), but this is not the case. <strong>Calvi <\/strong>is not the only one to claim her birth...<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have climbed the staircase, you will come across the entrance to the citadel, topped by a marble plaque bearing the town's motto: \"civita semper fidelis\", a gift from the Genoese after the Calvais fought off Franco-Turkish troops in the 16th century. This motto was adopted by France at the end of the 18th century, when the Calvais defended themselves against the English.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"The port of Calvi\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/port-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"The port of Calvi\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After passing through the gate, turn left and then right as you climb the hill, to admire the view of the navy from <strong>Calvi<\/strong>. The tower where salt was once stored can also be seen below on the left. The climb continues towards the highest point of the citadel, the church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the Place d'Armes, the former governors' palace, on two occasions in the history of Genoese Corsica, the governors moved from Bastia to <strong>Calvi<\/strong>. Before entering the church, on the left you can admire the view of the Revellata, then on your right, a staircase leads past the ruins of Christopher Columbus's house. Turn right again and you'll find the church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section2\">Visiting Calvi: must-see places<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left;\" title=\"Our Lady of the Serra\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/notre-dame-de-la-serra-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"Our Lady of the Serra\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\">One of the most beautiful Belvederes in <strong>Corsica <\/strong>! Head for the north exit of <strong>Calvi <\/strong>towards Galeria for about 5 kilometres, then take a small fork in the road on the left at the sign \"\u00a0<strong>Our Lady of the Serra<\/strong>\u00a0\"Go all the way. You've arrived. Climb the few steps that separate you from happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Open the gate and you'll find a small chapel surrounded by a courtyard and the imposing statue of Notre Dame de la Serra, and then a dreamlike vision opens up: a panoramic view of the whole of the Serra. <strong>the bay of Calvi<\/strong> and the R\u00e9ginu valley as far as Lumio!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An old local legend says that if you take the love of your life there, you'll have a wonderful time with him or her, and it's worked for some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left;\" title=\"Saint Jean Batiste Cathedral in Calvi\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cathedrale-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"Saint Jean Batiste Cathedral in Calvi\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\">The Cathedral of St John the Baptist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Built in the 16th century, the Greek cross plan is enhanced by the play of colours between white and sky blue, and the high altar is in polychrome marble, typical of Baroque altars. The statues on either side of the altar: the Mater Dolorosa, the Virgin and Child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other side, the Christ of miracles. It protects the population from plagues. Legend has it that in 1555, during the war against the French allied with the Turks, the Genoese exposed the Christ on the ramparts of the citadel and, by a \"miracle\", the siege was lifted and the town spared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" title=\"Calvi train\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/train-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"Calvi train\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\">The Calvi pine forest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the famous <strong>Calvi beach<\/strong> served in summer by the <em>trinighellu<\/em>the little <strong>beach train<\/strong>. The beach is lined with bathing establishments where you can eat \"with your feet in the water\", but which only occupy a very small part of it. There are sailing and diving schools and watercraft hire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The salt tower<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Built in 1897, this imposing tower is a former lookout post where salt was stored. It became part of the citadel in 1934. The extension now forms a vaulted passageway between Quai Landry and the Port de Commerce. The ramparts of the citadel and the salt tower, owned by the municipality, were listed as Historic Monuments in 1992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left;\" title=\"Church of Sainte-Marie-Majeure in Calvi\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/eglise-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"Church of Sainte-Marie-Majeure in Calvi\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\">Church of Sainte-Marie-Majeure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Baroque in style, it is painted pink and beige and is located in the Lower Town. <strong>Calvi<\/strong>Its forecourt opens onto rue Clemenceau. According to a hagiographic legend, several Christians were martyred here on the orders of the emperor Diocletian. Among the victims was Restituta, a wealthy Roman patrician who, after living in Libya, had taken refuge in <strong>Calvi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pyrrhus, the prefect of <strong>Corsica <\/strong>and Sardinia, had her arrested, tried and tortured for a long time before having her beheaded on 21 May 304. Patron saint of the Balagne region, her ashes now rest in the chapel of Sainte-Restitude in Calenzana, where her Carrara marble sarcophagus was unearthed in 1951.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Revellata peninsula<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other side of <strong>Calvi<\/strong>It is a wilderness, inhospitable except to yachtsmen in the gulf it forms, swept by violent westerly winds. There are no trees left on this stretch of land, only short-stemmed scrubland, sculpted by the wind on its western side and reborn after each fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left;\" title=\"The Revellata peninsula in Calvi\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/revellata-calvi.jpg\" alt=\"The Revellata peninsula in Calvi\" width=\"305\" height=\"206\">The Revellata lighthouse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Four kilometres of tracks lead to the pointe de la Revellata, where a lighthouse has been built, also known as the \"Phare du golfe de <strong>Calvi <\/strong>\". As if sheltered by it, the Stareso building was built underneath, flush with the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Construction began at the end of 1838 and the lighthouse was lit in 1844. Its main current features: 99.50 metres above sea level, a light with 2 white flashes every 10 seconds and a range of 21 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Owned by the State, in 2001 it was listed in the Patrimoine de France as an unprotected MH (Monuments Historiques) building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Calvi, capital of the Balagne region\" width=\"1060\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kaFKD3T58D8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section3\">Where to stay during your holiday in Calvi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hotel in Calvi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you'd like to pack your bags and get some service, here's a list of the three best hotels in Calvi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<span class=\"cvf\" data-cvf=\"aHR0cHM6Ly9hZmYudGMvY2FsdmNvZW4=\">\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"938\" src=\"https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en-1024x938.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-66572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en-1024x938.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en-300x275.png 300w, https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en-768x704.png 768w, https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en-1536x1407.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en-13x12.png 13w, https:\/\/www.corsevacances.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hotels-calvi-en.png 1740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" style=\"background-color:#04a598\">See the other 22 hotels<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/span>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">House Swap Calvi Home Exchange<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you prefer to be independent and organise your holiday as you see fit, you'll certainly opt for a holiday rental in Calvi.

This is a <strong>little train that runs along the coast<\/strong> from Calvi to Ile Rousse.
