St Michael’s Church (Chiesa di San Michele)

  Via Ospedale      (+39) 070 65 86 26     more than a year ago
The church was consecrated in 1738, although it's construction had begun much earlier, and had been possible thanks to a large donation by politician and lawyer Francesco Angelo Dessì, who died in 1674. He had been very close to the Society of Jesus, which used to have a novitiate building on the site of the present-day church, which still belongs to the Jesuits. The building is indeed the typical Jesuit church as regards architecture and is probably the finest example of Baroque art in Cagliari. It is ideally placed for a quick visit, just few minutes’ walk away from piazza Yenne. Guided tours also in English.
