Introduzione

Olbia is a town of approximately 40,000 inhabitants in northeastern Sardinia, in the Gallura sub-region. Called Olbia in the Roman age, Civita in the Middle Ages (Giudicati period) and Terranova Pausania before the 1940s, Olbia was again the official name of the town after the period of Fascism. It is the economic centre of this part of the island (commercial centres, food industry) and is very close to the famous Costa Smeralda tourist area. The area around the port has many bars and restaurants, giving credence to the town's name, which means “happy town”. Olbia is located on the Costa Smeralda, one of the most beautiful stretches of coast on the Mediterranean. It is therefore a popular holiday destination for the rich and famous, but this fantastic area has much to offer the budget traveller also. A wild and rocky coast on the one hand, catering for the more active holidaymaker ? excellent opportunities for hiking and climbing. On the other hand there are beautiful sandy beaches, ideal for long lazy days by the sea.

History and Culture

Olbia (the name is of Greek origin) is very ancient and was possibly founded by the Greeks, according to a local legend. It contains ruins from prehistoric times (Phoenician settlement) to the Roman Era, when it was an important port, and the Middle Ages, when it was the capital of the Giudicato of Gallura, one of the four independent states of Sardinia. Although the area around Olbia has been inhabited since the 8th century BC, the town was not actually founded until the 6th century BC. The Carthaginians decided on the location because of the natural harbour which created excellent access to Italy. The area's export of corn served to make it economically very viable, and was its main source of income. The harbour is today used as the main access point to Sardinia for the many Italians who spend their holidays here.

Chiese e Musei

The Basilica of San Simplicio.
This granite building is set back from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the town and is reputedly the most important historical building in Gallura. The church was contructed in the 11th and 12th centuries, and features columns that were rescued from destroyed Roman buildings.

Places of Interest

Costa Smeralda
To the north of Olbia, extending along the shores of a large peninsula, is the beautiful Costa Smeralda (Emerald Coast), whose beaches of fine sand are being developed as a holiday area by the construction of new roads and the provision of tourist facilities.

Eventi
