A Notre Dame Cathedral is found in the city of Alghero. It is considered the most significant religious structure on the island. The construction of the cathedral was completed in the 16th century. Its architectural appearance is a combination of various stylistic directions. Some of its old parts are in Gothic style, the main facade is decorated in neoclassical style. In the beauty of the interior, it is second to none on the island. The cathedral retains ancient marble finishing elements, magnificent sculptures, and medieval frescoes.
Parts of the old defensive structures, that were actively built to protect the island in the Middle Ages, have been preserved in Sardinia. An excellent example of such a structure is an ancient bastion of Saint-Remy. It is one of the few constructions that managed to survive during the Second World War. Tourists' favorite pastime is to climb the bastion. It gives a wonderful panorama of the city.

In the immediate vicinity of Cagliari, is located the charming village of San Sperate. Traditional painting murals are its main attractive feature. For several hundred years, local residents have been decorating the walls of their homes with real paintings. Each of these works of art is unique. It'll be really interesting to stroll along the streets of a miniature village. You can admire the old painted houses and other local sights. Many call the village of San Sperate a real open-air art gallery.
