Place Saint-Nicolas, Pedestrian square in Bastia, France.
The Place Saint-Nicolas extends 280 meters in length and 80 meters in width, featuring century-old palm trees along its perimeter facing the commercial port.
The square was constructed during the late 18th and early 19th centuries on reclaimed land from the gulf, which was filled to accommodate railway tracks.
Two statues mark the square's ends: a memorial depicting a mother with her war-sacrificed son and a representation of Napoleon Bonaparte by sculptor Lorenzo Bartolini.
The square contains numerous cafes, restaurants, and shops, with both free and paid parking options available in the surrounding area.
A music kiosk from 1908, restored in 2020, stands in the square, while a Sunday flea market brings local products and traditions to visitors.
