Nostra Signora di Tergu

One of the most outstanding examples of Romanesque architecture in the island, the church and the remains of the annexed abbey are located in a countryside area outside the village.

It is mentioned in the Pseudocondaghe of Santa Maria di Tergu as having been consecrated in 1117, and built by workers from Pisa and Lombardy.

The lower one has two corner pilasters and two semicolumns supporting two arches with finely decorated archivolts in limestone.

The vegetable motifs are also present in the white frames of the upper level, showing a blind loggia with five arcades, in which are contained unusual geometrical decorations.

To the same age dated the barrel vault of nave, which has been replaced by the current wooden trusses.
