Sant'Agostino, Renaissance church in central Cagliari, Italy

The Sant'Agostino church features a Greek-cross layout with barrel vaults and a semi-spherical dome rising above the central space point.

The church construction started in 1577 under Philip II of Spain's commission, during the expansion of Cagliari's urban fortification system.

The interior space contains multiple chapels that display regional religious art pieces from different periods of Sardinian history.

The church provides two entry points for visitors: the main entrance and an additional access through the sacristy on largo Carlo Felice.

Military architects Giorgio and Jacopo Palearo combined defensive and religious architectural elements in the church's structural design.
