• Piazza d’Italia - Situated just beyond the medieval walls of Sassari’s historic center, Piazza d’Italia is one of Sardinia’s most remarkable squares, acting as the lively core of the “Costa di Sopra.” At its heart is the statue of King Vittorio Emanuele II, crafted by Giuseppe Sartorio and unveiled in 1899 with the royal family in attendance. The square’s sophisticated paving and two majestic palaces were designed by Eugenio Sironi and Giovanni Borgnini, completed in four years, and have become iconic symbols of the city. This charming square offers a perfect mix of history, architecture, and culture, making it a must-visit for those exploring Sassari’s heritage.
• Fountain of the Rosello - The Fontana del Rosello in Sassari is one of the city’s most renowned historical landmarks, even giving its name to a district. This splendid fountain represents the passage of time, with twelve spouts symbolizing the months and four statues representing the seasons. Positioned just outside the ancient city walls near the bridge of the same name, it was constructed in the early 17th century in a late-Renaissance style. A must-visit monument, it provides a unique insight into the city’s rich cultural and historical heritage.
• Cattedrale di San Nicola - The Cathedral of San Nicola in Sassari, the most important church in Sardinia’s second-largest city, is a magnificent blend of architectural styles and historical layers. Located in the heart of the historic center, where Sassari first emerged, this basilica dates back to 1135 and was elevated to a cathedral in 1441. Its Gothic vaults, Baroque façade, and classical decorations reflect various reconstructions, including a 13th-century Romanesque rebuild. Beneath the apse, traces of the early Christian structure are still visible.
