    Place Gaffori in Corte

     

     

    Place of Jean-Pierre Gaffori with his birthplace (1704) covered with bullet holes in the centre of Corte. In 1745, Corsicans led by Gaffori drove the occupiers out of the town and he was called "Protector of the Nation".

    Very nice. Did you take the train between Bastia and Ajaccio? I did years ago but, alas, no photos.

    On this visit we were travelling by car.A few years earlier, I took the old railway from Calvi to the island's secret capital Corte. A wonderfully old route!

     

    And thank you for the kind words.

     

    Best regards, Uli
