During your stay in L'Ile-Rousse and the Balagne region, meet Guy Savelli, a history buff who will tell you all about the history of the Balagne region and Corsica through a rich collection of ancient objects.
In the 1990s, Mr Guy Savelli created this private museum dedicated to the history of Corsica. Perched on the heights of Corbara, it is housed in his private home. Here you can discover portraits, maps, period posters, handwritten letters, old musical instruments, numerous books on Corsican history, as well as 16th, 17th and 18th century paintings, pencil drawings and parchment manuscripts from the 12th to 17th centuries. The museum also houses an extraordinary collection of styli, traditional Corsican knives, pistols, coins from the independent era and many other surprising objects. Guy Savelli also collects everything relating to Pascal Paoli, u babbu di a patria. This private museum, ranked number 1 on TripAdvisor, is a must-see, guided by the owner.
