Corso Vittorio Emanuele II

Sassari


The main drag through the centro storico, Corso Vittorio Emanuele II follows the path of the ancient Roman road from Porto Torres to Cagliari. Little remains from its 13th-century heyday, but there are a few signs of past grandeur. At No 23, Casa Farris is a 15th-century townhouse, while a few metres up, the Casa di Re Enzo provides a Catalan Gothic setting for a clothes shop. Opposite, the Liberty-style Teatro Civico was a 19th-century addition.
