Sassari Experience

Discover Sassari’s city center! Our App will lead you through the authentic streets of Sassari... the part of the town so dear to the "sassaresi in ciabi" ( "people with keys”, that is, traditionally those who had the “keys of the city”). Have you just reached your destination? Are you looking for a place to visit, a nice little restaurant to taste Sassari’s traditional dishes? Are you up for some shopping at the stores that made Sassari’s history? And what about plunging into our ancient traditional rites? Sassari Experience is here to help you! What’s better than a tourist guide? A town that speaks to you through its own inhabitants, who are eager to share their stories, anecdotes and most picturesque venues. One of the most fascinating surprises of the city center are the Historical Shops and Stores: they have been offering their services and craft products for over 30 years, and for this reason the Autonomous Region of Sardinia awarded them the "Negozio Storico" plaque: an Historical Shop or Store is a treasure that Sassari is quite rich in. Seek them as you take a unique walk across the authentic streets of Sassari. Also, why don’t you pay a visit to the shops hosted within historical buildings. They are part of the very fabric of the Old Town, with their antiques and old equipment, imbued with timeless know-how. Taste the very essence of our city. Visit one of our typical restaurants, with their truly traditional cuisine ("sassarese avveru") offering of dishes deeply connected to our farming tradition. They are a “must” if you wish to fully enjoy your culinary journey. Don’t forget to come on August 14 and follow the "Discesa dei Candelieri", also known as "Faradda di ri Candareri”, a festive parade when people display and carry huge symbolical wooden votive candlesticks through the streets of the Old Town, to make a vow to Our Lady of the Assumption and wish all fellow citizens to celebrate one hundred years of age, the typical "a zent'anni" wish.
