Casalta in three videos: the bishop's chapel, an archival procession and Sant'Anna

Three distinct records of Casalta's heritage: a FAGEC interview at Santa Maria, Super-8 procession footage from 1959, and a local Sant'Anna celebration.

France 3 Corse ViaStella's 2018 report is titled as a live visit to Santa Maria in Casalta and names FAGEC heritage specialist Stéphane Orsini in its description. It is a substantial local-heritage conversation, not just a scenic postcard, and connects the chapel site to the wider story of the Ampugnani pieve. The Culture Ministry's inventory confirms Casalta's medieval link to the bishops of Accia. Check present access before trying to enter the ruins or church.

This 97-second Canti in Cappella upload preserves a procession at Casalta on 15 August 1959, according to its description. Its Super-8 footage is a historical family-film record, later posted in July 2015, rather than a modern account of the village or a current religious calendar. The brief clip offers a distinct glimpse of community ceremony; the blog's local notes help identify the occasion. Ask the parish before planning around any procession today.

Hervé Cheuzeville's four-minute upload is titled for the Sant'Anna celebration in Casalta on 26 July 2018. The uploader describes the “Dio vi Salvi Regina” hymn and a return procession, giving the recording a sound-and-ceremony focus different from the Santa Maria heritage interview and older Super-8 film. It documents that year's celebration only; it does not announce a recurring date or guarantee that visitors can attend a service now. Confirm parish arrangements locally.
