The CONVENT: where history and people Weave together to realize your dreams.
In ancient times it was home to water. Water from the park of Molentargius came in forcefully up to this point, crossing the countryside, but it was already inhabited by the first monks who controlled the salt trade from here, the white gold of southern Sardinia. Little by little, men mastered the land, through hard work they reclaimed it and metre by metre they cultivated it, bestowing on the flamingos, the knights of Italy, the avocets and on nature itself a place of incomparable beauty.
WORD CONVENTO
A thousand years of work and prayers to build and keep, to grow and hold twenty years of emotions and passion, to host your happiest moments
ORIGINS
First it was Santa Maria delle Vigne, a small Medieval country church, in the time of the feudal Giudicati kingdoms.
SAINT JOSEPH
The Vittorini monks turned it into a convent devoted to prayer and agricultural labour. Later, in the XVII century, the Scolopi Fathers consecrated it to Saint Joseph Calasanz.
In the XIX century it became the property of the family who still owns it today and for more than a century it was still devoted to farming activities a the gates of Cagliari, until the city expanded and engulfed it.
Almost thirty years ago, after a careful and loving restoration, it was reborn as a place to welcome, meet and celebrate.
From that moment it has hosted the happiest moment of many people: weddings, baptisms, parties for a special anniversary or to celebrate an important professional success.
Convent, after all, comes from the Latin convenire: that is, to gather.
