The church, located in the middle of a cemetery, was built in the 11th century in the Pisan-Romanesque style. It is considered one of the most beautiful churches in Corsica. It was recently extensively renovated with funds from the EU and the Corsican regional association.

One of the most beautiful villages in Balagne, alleys, covered passages and houses blend into the rock. The view of the plain and the sea is splendid.

The pass itself has a provisional pass sign at the junction to a fenced antenna system, but the D 151 towards Montegrosso as a mountain road climbs by about 15 meters in altitude over the next undulating 800 meters.

For those who are planning a detour to the Forêt Domaniale de Bonifatu or who are thinking of driving past Calvi and heading southwest over the Col de Marsolino, it even represents a shortcut via a beautiful hillside road. Which brings us to the most important point: the most beautiful panorama of the bay of Calvi and the ridge towards Monte Cinto is probably from the road over the Col de Salvi. This means that on the D 151 leading over the pass, despite the very moderate traffic volume, you may well come across a coach that is too big for the road, which is mostly only one and a half lanes wide.

The Col de Salvi is a quiet, very worthwhile connection option for racing cyclists who are heading towards Calvi from the (north)east via the Col de San Colombano or the Bocca di a Battaglia.

The former fishing village was expanded into a trading port with city fortifications by Pascal Paoli in 1759 during the Corsican Republic in order to have a Corsican port opposite Calvi, which was still Genoese at the time. The late founding of the town is still clearly visible due to the division of the town area into regular street squares. The official language was Italian until 1848.

The region has been inhabited since the 5th to 3rd millennium BC. Around 1000 BC, the town of Agila existed there, which was dependent on the city of Tyros (Phoenicia). The Romans maintained a base called Rubico Rocega at this location during their rule over Corsica until the 4th century AD. After that, the current urban area was almost uninhabited except for a few fishermen and farmers due to its proximity to the coast and the resulting vulnerability to enemy attacks. It was not until the 16th century that residents of the nearby town of Santa-Reparata-di-Balagna opened the first shops near the coast for trade with neighboring communities by sea.

L’Île-Rousse got its name from the red porphyry rocks in front of the harbor entrance – the Île de la Pietra. This island is now connected to the island of Corsica by a causeway.
