Bastia Museum, the ideal holiday destination!

Housed within the Palace of the Genoese Governors, near the Romieu garden and the port, Bastia Museum showcases the history of the capital of the Haute-Corse since Ancient Times. Come with the family or your beloved and explore Bastia through the centuries – a fascinating day out!

And after your cultural excursion to this lovely Corsican city, head back to your holiday village for some well-deserved rest in your snug little retreat! The next day, you’ll be raring to go again and make the most of the nearby Mediterranean, the water park and, for your young campers, the free children’s clubs. A Corsican holiday with Sandaya really is idyllic!

Visit Bastia Museum with your family

Whatever their favourite period of history, your young history buffs will certainly be able to quench their thirst for knowledge at Bastia Museum. Are they fascinated by Ancient times or the Middle Ages? Then they’ll be captivated by the areas dedicated to Ancient Corsica and to the Pisan and Genoese settlements after the fall of the Roman Empire. Make your way around the museum with the family and discover how Bastia evolved over the centuries. 

And thanks to the temporary exhibitions open to all every year, a different period in Corsican history is brought under the spotlight, so you’ll learn something new about Bastia and the Island of Beauty every time you visit! Home to bandits and a hideout for pirates, as well as the stronghold of an emperor, Corsica is just waiting for you to unearth its astonishing secrets!

You’ll be enchanted by the beauty of the works on show and will go home with some lovely memories of your romantic getaway to the capital of northern Corsica. 

After the museum, continue your idyllic interlude in the adjacent Romieu garden. This is a lovely leafy haven of peace that overlooks the port and the stream of ships that come and go all day long. Wander through this enchanting setting, arm in arm with your beloved, to bring your cultural excursion in Bastia to a magnificent close.
