Quartu Sant’Elena is a city and comune in the Province of Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy. It is the third biggest city of Sardinia with a population of c. 71,000 as of 2008. The city’s name comes from its distance to Cagliari (Quartum miles, Latin for “four miles”), and from the passage there of St. Helena, mother of emperor Constantine.
From an artistic point of view, there are five interesting churches situated in the city. The most important are the churches of Sant’Elena Imperatrice (dating before 1589, but now in Neo-Classic lines and recently proclaimed “Basilica”), Santa Maria Cepola (before 1089) and Sant’Agata. There is also Sa dom’e farra (house museum). It is a large peasant house of the 17th century, where you can see various rooms, objects and tools used by the peasant society.
There are numerous nuraghi in the neighbourhood.
