Water towers between Oristano and Cabras In the region between Oristano and Cabras on Sardinia you come across striking, mushroom-shaped towers that are up to 20 meters high. They seem mysterious at first, but they have a very practical function: they are modern water towers. Contrary to what many people believe, water towers are not used to store large quantities of water, but rather to maintain a constant water pressure in the pipe network. This also applies, for example, to the column-like tower at Stagno Sale 'e Porcus, which regulates the pressure in the network. In many Italian regions you can see similar structures, which are often underestimated due to their shape. Despite the striking design, the real benefit lies in the technical background - the increase in pressure ensures that water is evenly distributed and reaches all households.

The Torre Grande is the largest Spanish tower in Sardinia, built between 1542 and 1572. This town is lively thanks to the presence of clubs, bars, concerts, shows, restaurants, festivals, exhibitions and markets. The tower represents the main legacy of Spanish domination in Sardinia, and the nearby town of Oristano also shows extensive traces of fortifications, both medieval and Aragonese. This area is one of the places where the Spanish most influenced construction on the island.

The Franciscan Order has been present in Sardinia since 1230, and the monastery of San Francesco was founded in Oristano as early as 1253. There is no documentary evidence of the Gothic construction of the church. By the early 19th century, it was in serious disrepair, so Archbishop Giovanni Maria Bua decided to rebuild it from scratch rather than restore it. Thus, it was destroyed in 1835, and on February 17 of the following year, the foundation stone of the new church was blessed. It was designed by the Sassari friar Antonio Cano, a royal protégé who had studied at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome. The building collapsed on September 18, 1838, before the dome was completed. From the surviving survey of the church-monastery complex and its surroundings, it can be deduced that the dome had an elliptical shape, as is typical for Cano's works. Shortly thereafter, the task was assigned to the most important Sardinian architect of the 19th century, Gaetano Cima of Cagliari. The project, submitted on September 18, 1841, was approved on April 22, 1842, and work then began. The building, rebuilt according to the forms of purist classicism, reopened for worship in October 1847. The current building has a central plan with two chapels on each side and a deep semicircular apse. From the left chapel, a small room leads to the sacristy. The façade, accessible via a wide staircase with eight steps, is preceded by a tympanum-pronaos supported by four columns and two pilasters. All supports are surmounted by Ionic capitals. The façade features a large central portal and two smaller symmetrical side portals. The central body of the building is covered by a large hemispherical dome, standing on a cylindrical drum and surmounted by a polygonal lantern.

The palace owes its name to the noble title of Don Damiano Nurra Conca, to whom the Savoy king Carlo Emanuele III granted the title of Marquis of Arcais with a diploma dated August 23, 1767. The title Arcais derives from the name of two fishponds, Arcai Mannu and Arcai Pittiu near Zerfaliu, part of the Marquis's real estate assets. The wealthy landowner from Oristano, who learned of the plan to populate the Sinis peninsula by the Kingdom of Savoy to better defend the Gulf of Oristano, always threatened by barbarian invasions, asked the same Viceroy of Sardinia, Alfieri di Cortemiglia, the enfeoffment of the territory by proposing to pay 216,000 Piedmontese lire, equivalent to 254,000 Sardinian scudi. Don Damiano Nurra Conca's residence was built in Corso Umberto, in the heart of the city. His generosity also contributed to the construction of a church and convent, donated to the Carmelite Order on April 27, 1782. The Latin inscription found in the Church of the Carmel indicates the place where Don Damiano Nurra d'Arcais was buried on June 15, 1790. The building has an austere façade, slightly enlivened by the sculpted expositions in red trachyte stone; a decidedly more frivolous touch is given instead by the semicircular balconies that decorate the openings on the ground floor. A bell-shaped dome illuminates the internal staircase, which forks after the first ramp and leads to the upper floors of the building. Currently, the building belongs to the Provincial Administration of Oristano. Source: https://www.comune.oristano.it/it/amministrazione/luoghi/luogo/Palazzo-Arcais/

The Church of San Francesco in Oristano stands next to the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta and the Archbishop's Seminary. Inside is also the Convent of San Francesco, built in 1335 but completely remodeled and completed in the 19th century along with the church. The Church of San Francesco in Oristano has a neoclassical façade, but originally (i.e. when the Franciscans arrived in Oristano in 1253) the church was Gothic in style. The facade of the Church of San Francesco has three portals and consists of two pillars and four columns supporting the tympanum. A hemispherical dome with an octagonal lantern crowns the building. The interior, with a central plan, has two chapels on each side. The coffered dome is supported by pillars and semi-columns with Ionic capitals. The first chapel on the left houses the Christ of Nicodemus, a remarkable 14th-century wooden sculpture of the Spanish school, prototype of a series of crucifixes, including the wooden crucifix of Ollolai, preserved in various churches in Sardinia. In the sacristy there are other valuable works, such as the panel (1533), once part of an altarpiece, depicting St. Francis receiving the stigmata, the work of Pietro Cavaro and the marble statue (1368) possibly representing St. Basil Magnificent, attributed to Nino Pisano [3].

Built in the period of the Spanish Empire, around 1540, it served as a protection for the Gulf of Oristano and the mouth of the Tirso river. Imposing monument, in my opinion to be enhanced and made known in more depth.
