In 1539, the city (estate) of Porto-Vecchio was built by the genoas which finished, by this site, the defensive system of the island. Former (old) Genoese fortifications and bastions are still visible in the high city. The fortifications with them five bastions date the foundation of the city in 1539. The most famous, aujourd hui restored, are the Bastion of France.
The port, situated in the heart of the gulf brought the necessary safety against the barbaresques invasions who were nevertheless numerous. The citadel raised itself on the heights, enough far from the unhealthy swamps. Those this were responsible for terrible diseases which decimated all the population. Genoa repopulated the city, but the disease and the invasions had left the pale city until 1564, when Sampierro Corso seized it.
