Chiesa di San Francesco di Paola

This Catholic church on Via Roma, right across from Cagliari's port, was historically known as San Francesco al Molo — a nod to its harborside position that's hard to miss. It belongs to the convent complex of the Minimi, the order founded by Saint Francis of Paola (1416–1507) and approved in 1474. It's one of those spots where the religious history and the maritime setting collide in a way that feels distinctly Cagliari. Worth a look if you're passing through the Marina district.
