Santa Giusta - Basilica di Santa Giusta
Santa Giusta is a small town just three km south of Oristano - and so a kind of suburb. The Basilica di Santa Giusta is the former cathedral of the Diocese of Santa Giusta, that existed upto 1504, when it was annexed to the Archdiocese of Oristano.
The pretty large cathedral was erected by Prison workers and completed in 1145. The portal is flanked by a lion and a lioness. These symbolic lions are very frequent within the Romanesque times. Mostly they devour rams or other prey. Here the lions hold small deers (with antlers). They seem to pet them..
