A historic archaeological site located in the woods of the South Corsica region

Castellu di Capula is part of the Cucuruzzu site in the South Corsica region. To reach the casteddu of Capula, visitors walk for about twenty minutes through the woods after passing a fortress village dating from the Bronze Age.

The site features megalithic structures and was classified as a historic monument in December 1990. It remains a point of interest for those exploring the archaeological heritage of the area.

Every year on August 9, a pilgrimage to Saint Laurent takes place at the site. It stands as a significant piece of the region's history, preserved for visitors to see.
