The church of St. John Baptist (Eglise Saint-Jean Baptiste) is the dominant architectural feature of the small West-Corsican village Ota. The church, perfectly renovated in 2005, originates from the end XVIIIth century. The building with shinning creamy-yellow facade is example of transition of architectural styles - with touch of late Baroque and dominant pure lines of early Empire style.
