A trip to Sardinia can not be complete without a visit to some of the beautiful churches built in the island, especially those built during the period of Pisan rule.
In Sardinia you can find beautiful medieval churches such as the Basilica of San Gavino in Porto Torres, probably the finest Romanesque church in the whole of Sardinia, a building in which the Pisan style is evident; in Pisan style are also the beautiful churches of Santa Maria del Regno of Ardara, Holy Trinty (Santissima Trintà) of Saccargia, San Michele Salvènero and Sant'Antioco of Bisarcio, just to name a few. Surprisingly scarce and of lesser artistic value are, however, the religious architectural relics of the Gothic-Aragonese. |
