Chiesa San Francesco

The Church of San Francesco is one of the most significant places of worship of Iglesias, located in the homonymous square of the historical center, a short distance from the Cathedral of Santa Chiara. Church of San Francesco represents an important example of Catalan Gothic architecture, characterized by sober lines and structural balance, typical of medieval influences present in Sardinian territory.
The church fits harmoniously into the historical fabric of the city, helping to define the architectural and cultural identity of the city center. Over time, he has taken on a significant role not only from a religious point of view, but also historical and artistic, becoming a concrete testimony of the cultural stratifications that Iglesias has involved. It is today a place that combines spirituality, heritage and historical memory, keeping alive the Franciscan tradition and the bond with the community.
