Alghero attractions

Considered one of the best examples of Gothic-Catalan architecture in Sardinia, Alghero’s Chiesa di San Francesco ranks among the city’s most important historic attractions. The 15th-century church is part of a larger complex, which includes a Franciscan convent, cloister, and bell tower. Admire the highlights, then climb the 64 steps to the top of the tower for pretty views over the city.
