CHIESA DI SANT'EFISIO

The church was built on the site where St. Efisio is said to have been martyred. Built on the foundations of an early Christian church and consecrated at the beginning of the 12th century, the building, with a rather austere interior, is interesting for its architecture of French-Catalan influence. On 2 May, an endless procession that had left Cagliari the day before reached the church around noon. The statue of the saint, carried in a coach, is accompanied by the crowd and by local folk groups. The festival lasts 4 days with concerts, folk dances and other events.
