Church of St. Gregory the Great

It is the parish church of Bauladu and represents the artistic pinnacle of Bauladu architecture. Inside, the different styles that have characterized the monument since its foundation in the Judicial Age
can be identified. The original 13th-century structure is observed in the simple single-nave hall. The portal is surmounted by a limestone relief representing the Virgin and Child between two angels. The work, of significant artistic interest, in the late 16th-century Catalan-Gothic style, has over time inspired the collective imagination that has attributed the decoration to the legendary Damas Cugurras, medieval women from Santa Barbara of Turre. Inside, of particular importance is the statue of Our Lady of the Snow: made of polychrome wood, it is probably of the Spanish school dating back to the 16th century. Currently the church square, dedicated to the hero of the Sardinian revolution Giovanni Maria Angioy, is undergoing redevelopment and enhancement work.
