This church, dedicated to the Holy Cross (Latin: "Santa Croce"), derives its patronage from the cross on which Jesus Christ died. The veneration of the Holy Cross largely originates from Saint Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine the Great (who, after his victory at the Milvian Bridge in front of Rome, recognized Christianity as a religion and ended the long period of persecution with the Edict of Toleration of Milan in 312). She made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land (Israel/Palestine) in the early fourth century and brought numerous relics back to Europe, including the "True Cross," on which Jesus Christ was crucified. Therefore, Helena is often depicted with a cross as an attribute. The Church celebrates the Feast of the Discovery, public presentation, and veneration of the Holy Cross—called the "Exaltation of the Holy Cross"—on September 14th.

Museo del Sughero / Cork Museum, Calangianus How is it possible that Calangianus, a remote town in the Gallura hinterland, was included in the last century among the 100 most industrialized municipalities in Italy? The answer is very simple: cork. The process, which officially began in 1851, soon made Calangianus a fortune: in a short time, workshops were built that employed hundreds of people from the surrounding villages. Finally, this resource, which had always been so widespread in the region, was exploited on a large scale. In fact, in 1906, cork was successfully presented at the International Exhibition in Milan. The first edition of the Cork Fair dates back to 1978. Text / Source: Ministro del Turismo Republica Italiana https://www.italia.it/it/sardegna/museo-del-sughero

Nuchis is a splendid municipality, belonging to the seven historical municipalities of the Gallura area. Perhaps founded in the 11th century, it still maintains its ancient charm intact. The ancient churches are of great interest, such as that of the Holy Spirit built in the 13th century which is striking for its high bell tower which soars into the blue sky.
