Getting to this marvelous building from the lower part of Cagliari, where your hotel is most likely to be, is not exactly easy. It's a steep climb, but you shouldn't leave the city without having made the effort. You will visit a building that incorporates Romanesque and Baroque styles and has a visually surprising mixture of artwork that might overwhelm sensitive eyes and souls, but its details will move even the most blasé of tourists.

Beautiful church. Admission was free, but you can give a voluntary collection. When you are in the middle of the church, look up, there is a beautiful painting. Once inside the church, you can go down one floor on the left and see the catacombs. Not very big, but very beautifully designed. You also have the possibility to light candles. You have to note that you should have your shoulders covered, as is the case in most church places.

The lower cathedral area under the main alter is amazing. The roof in that area is incredible to look at. Amazing marble work. Quite a walk up the hill to reach the cathedral but well worth it, especially if you are planning to visit Bastion Remy also as it is nearby. There was a holy communion or baptism happening at the time we visited. Interesting to see it as a tourist attraction but also used by the locals.

La cattedrale si trova nella parte alta del centro storico su Piazza Palazzo, nelle immediate vicinanze del Palazzo de Città, del Palazzo Vescovile e del Palazzo Viceregio. La chiesa fu costruita nel XIII secolo, inizialmente in stile romanico pisano; poco dopo divenne sede vescovile, ma poi la facciata fu sostituita da una facciata barocca all'inizio del XVIII secolo e infine nel XX secolo la facciata originaria fu sostituita dal vecchio piano restaurato. L'interno è dominato dallo stile barocco piemontese del XVII secolo con molti marmi. La cripta è particolarmente suggestiva con 179 nicchie murarie contenenti le reliquie dei martiri. La volta a botte del corpo principale della chiesa è ornata da magnifici rosoni. Famoso è il pulpito con i 4 leoni, realizzato nel XII secolo per il duomo di Pisa e poi donato a Cagliari nel XIV secolo. Nel XVII secolo la tribuna del pulpito fu segata in due parti e le parti poste all'ingresso principale. I 4 leoni sono stati collocati intatti presso il coro: simboleggiano potere e forza per sconfiggere il male. Ogni leone abbatte una preda diversa con le sue zampe. Una delle cose più affascinanti della cattedrale è, a mio avviso, il fatto che sia decorata con marmi colorati in tutto l'interno.

I loved the cathedral, nestled among the narrow streets of the castle quarter. In my perspective, it was one of the best experiences I've ever had.The interior of the church was stunning, including the statues and the artwork. The cathedral of Cagliari has catacombs inside, which adds to the entire experience of witnessing it. Last but not least, you must visit this place if you're in Cagliari!
