Church of Saint Efisio (Stampace)

Descrizione

St. Ephisius Church is situated in the medieval district of Stampace and its origins date back to 430 A.D. It was built above a cave where, according to the tradition, the Saint was detained before his martyrdom.

St. Ephisius Church lies above a limestone cave, about 9 metres deep, commonly known as the prison where he was jailed before his decapitation on Nora's beach, in the year 303 B.C.
The construction of an Oratory belonging to the Confraternity of St. Ephisius, designed by the piedmontese architect Antonio Felice De Vincenti, started 1726. Then, the building was modified and adapted to a more modern style, the Piedmontese Baroque; in 1870 the ancient church was demolished and the new one was accomplished in 1782.
The façade, marked by lesenes in Ionic order, is divided into three sectors by horizontal cornices.
The inside has a rectangular plan, covered  by a barrel vault and characterized by parastades and entablatures of classic inspiration. Three chapels stand on each side, and the presbitery is surmounted by an octagonal dome.
The rich marble decoration gives the church the typical feature of the late XVIII century style. Especially the altars, like the main one by Giovanni Battista Franco, dating back to 1786, and the one in the St. Ephisius chapel, on the right side, dating to 1791. The latter houses the statue of the saint carried in procession on May 1st during the famous religious feast.
In 1798 another altar was erected and dedicated to Christ Cucified in the Confraternity's Oratory, annexed to the church about a century later.
The church houses paintings by Francesco Costa, Domenico Colombino and Sebastano Scaleta, in addition to many precious sculptures, including a neapolitan Ecce Homo from the XVII century.

Church of Saint'Avendrace

Chiesa di Sant'Avendrace
Categoria/Sottocategoria
macrocategoria
Descrizione

The Church is dedicated to Saint'Avendrace, fifth bishop of the city. The building is located on the site where , according to the tradition, the saint was martyred. The facade is simple, with a portal surmounted by a rectangular window and a bell tower. Inside there is a single nave with pointed arches and side chapels covered by barrel vaults.

The church stands on a small subterranean environment, of rectangular form, which is accessible through a trap door in the floor near the entrance. Tradition has it that this was the cave where the bishop Avendrace tried to hide himself during persecutions , and where he was buried after his death in 87 AD .The roofing has a vaulted ceiling, and close to a wall there is a holy well believed to be miraculous.

Throughout its history, the Church underwent some renovation works and changes which make difficult to define the original dating . Furthermore, the first church was oriented in a different way, with the apse located at the point where now lies the entrance , so that the crypt was just below the altar. This fact leads us to believe that the temple was built in honor of the burial place of the saint. The crypt was modified after the restructuring in1952; it was covered with a layer of concrete for protection , causing a significant decrease in the volume and changing the original appearance.

Church of Saint'Alenixedda

Descrizione

Four pilasters divide the facade into three main parts: the central one with the arc-shaped entrance , on which stands a belfry. On both sides of the facade there are small ascending arcs that end above the entrance. The origin of the name is taken from the diminutive of Alenixedda, Aleni, that is Elena in Sardinia, mother of Emperor Constantine, who was celebrated as a true saint in the island.

The diminutive was created with the intent to distinguish two churches completely different to each other, but devoted to the same saint: the first one, which was erected on the site of S. Vetrano, and the larger one, built in the adjacent town of Quartu Sant'Elena.

Descrizione

The monumental church of St. Augustine was erected around 1577, in the Marina district, using a Renaissance style. Originally, the temple was built in an other location, where now it is possible to find Largo Carlo Felice street and where  St. Augustine's crypt still exists. Here, between 504 and 722  A.D, the Saint's remains were kept. They were brought from Africa,by the monk Fulgenzio, in order to save them from Vandals.

The main entrance is located in Baylle street, but there is a secondary entry connected with Largo Carlo Felice, which introduce to the vestry's yard.

The building has a Greek cross plan, with barrel vaults; at the conjunction among the four arms , there is a semispherical dome. Among the internal  furnitures stand out different pictures, a golden and  wooden altar in Baroque style and  the simulacrum of St. Augustine.
