Sainte Marie Majeure Church

Cultural heritage | Sud Corse

The construction of the church of Sainte Marie Majeure, probably started when Corsica was entrusted by the Pope to the Republic of Pisa, during the XXII century. But it was completed by the Genovese who, in 1187, invaded the city. This is why you will find a mixture of Romanesque and Gothic styles. In the middle of ancient mansions in the heart of the medieval city, it is the oldest building in Bonifacio. Bonifacio Tourist Office source
