San Vito


Population: approx. 4000

San Vito is a large town situated among fertile vineyards at the beginning of the coastal plain of the Sarrabus district.
In the high part of the town visitors must not miss the church of San Lussorio, whose Medieval ruins were recently restored to their former glory. Inside the church there are beautiful wooden corbels, exquisitely carved and painted.

Near the town it is also possible to visit the abandoned Monte Narba mine, once a rich silver deposit which was exhausted after decades of exploitation. The presence of these mining ruins allows San Vito to be included in the development project for the area, designed at promoting local tourism.
An event not to be missed is the "Sagra delle Launeddas", a festival held in San Vito in August, which celebrates the ancient local wind instrument and which attracts thousands of tourists every year.
