Sixty years after the abandonment of the old parish church dedicated to St. Andrew, work began in 1867 in the Su Carmu district to build a new parish church; the work was entrusted to the Nuoro architect Giacomo Galfrè and carried out by the people of Orani.
It was consecrated in 1940 and completed in the 1960s, and today, with its imposing neoclassical mass, it dominates the historic center of the town.
Important works of art are housed inside the parish church.
The altarpiece depicting The Glory of St. Andrew was created by Mario Delitala.
The 18th-century inlaid marble pulpit comes from the old parish church while the wooden pulpit belonged to the Rosary Church.
In the right arm of the transept are paintings by Mario and Francesco Delitala, Stanis Dessy; there is also a 16th-century retable in the church from the church of Santa Maria.
