Travel guide
Understand
As a stronghold of the Counts Savelli, Sant'Antonino was also a place of refuge for the inhabitants of Balagne when pirates attacked, which is undoubtedly believed due to its location. Sant'Antonino is also called the Eagle's Nest of Balagne. It is made up of around 75 houses, tightly knit together and wrapped around a granite peak, forming a kind of labyrinth to better resist any potential invaders.
Get around
Sant'Antonino is accessible only by foot, the streets are too narrow for cars and even bicycles are hindered by the steps.

In the parking lot in front of the village is the Annonciation church from the 11th century.
