What makes Olbia: Short private guided city tour by Tuk-Tuk a unique experience ?
The basilica of San Simplicio, in Olbia, is the most important and ancient religious monument in north-eastern Sardinia and a testimony to the spread of Christianity on the island. Cathedral until 1839, parish church since 1955, it was given the title of minor basilica in 1993 by Pope John Paul II.
It is dedicated to San Simplicio, protobishop of the city and martyr under the emperor Diocletian.
The building stands in the upper part of the historic center and was built on the ruins of a pagan temple from the Roman era, perhaps dedicated to Hercules. Originally named after the Conversion of Saint Paul, it was the only parish in Olbia until 1954, when the ancient basilica of San Simplicio was reopened.
The Fausto Noce park is the green lung of the city. With eighteen hectares of greenery, in 2005 it was nominated as the second best greenery project in Italy.
