Boroneddu

Boroneddu is a municipality in the Province of Oristano with about 165 inhabitants, 216 metres above sea level.

Boroneddu is one of Sardinia's smallest municipalities, with fewer than two hundred people on under five square kilometres between Ghilarza and Lake Omodeo; part of Ghilarza from 1927, it became independent again in 1958. In the village is the simple 17th-century parish church of San Lorenzo, and near the lake stands the 16th-century country church of San Salvatore, last trace of the vanished village of Orene and scene of the main feast in September. Two groups of rock-cut tombs are carved into the trachyte walls of San Michele.
