Brocante de Saint-Pancrace U Tempu chi Passa

The Brocante de Saint-Pancrace: U Tempu chi Passa

Every Sunday, the association U Tempu chi Passa — whose name means "The Time That Passes" in Corsican — organizes its weekly flea market on the Saint-Pancrace site, in Castellare-di-Casinca. This flea market hosts up to 20 exhibitors who set up from 7 am, offering flea market items, antiques, and second-hand goods in a setting steeped in history.

Saint-Pancrace, a place steeped in history

The Saint-Pancrace site is intimately linked to the history of Castellare-di-Casinca. The Saint-Pancrace church is one of the oldest religious buildings in the region, with origins dating back to the 9th century. Saint Pancras (San Brancà in Corsican) is a revered figure in Corsica: two major fairs are dedicated to him on the island, including the one in Castellare. The Sunday flea market organized by U Tempu chi Passa is part of this tradition of gathering around this emblematic place.

Castellare-di-Casinca, village of Casinca

Castellare-di-Casinca is a perched village in the micro-region of Casinca, in Haute-Corse, with the postal code 20213 (shared with Penta-di-Casinca). Perched on the first mountain foothills overlooking the eastern plain and the Tyrrhenian Sea, it offers an exceptional panorama of the Costa Verde. The village benefits from remarkable architectural and natural heritage, with its stone alleys, fountains, and terraced gardens.
