Chiesa di Santa Maria Maddalena, Tramatza

The construction of the Church of Santa Maria Maddalena began in the 14th century. A parchment, found in 1885 during work on the main altar, confirms that the church was consecrated on 15 September 1388 by 'Fra Cristoforo dei Conventuali di Oristano', commissioned by Archbishop Leonardo of Oristano.

During the 17th, 19th and 20th centuries, the church underwent various restorations. Today, only a few fragments of stone decorations remain of the original structure, scattered on the side walls and above the arches.

Among the preserved decorations, one can see a coat of arms with a hand holding a chalice, heads of angels with wings in some fragments, and a coat of arms with the anagram 'IHS', where the H is surmounted by a cross and there are three nails at the bottom.
