Tour de Sénèque
Torra di Seneca
A medieval tower on the Luri ridge, said to be where the Roman philosopher Seneca was exiled. From here you can see the sea on both sides.
The Tour de Sénèque is a medieval square tower built on a rocky peak about 560 meters above sea level. Legend says the ancient Roman philosopher Seneca was exiled to Corsica and lived in seclusion here. From the mountain pass between Luri and Pino, park the car and walk steeply uphill for about 20 to 30 minutes to the top, where you can see both the east and west coasts of Cap Corse. The path is mostly gravel, so wear running shoes. The tower is not open to the public.
