Viddalba is an Anglona village in the lower Coghinas valley, an independent municipality since 1975, among hills and fertile fields a few kilometres from the sea at Valledoria. In the Middle Ages it belonged to the Giudicato of Torres, on the border with Gallura. On the site of a nuragic settlement a Roman necropolis developed, which has yielded many funerary stelae, displayed in the village's Archaeological Museum. On a nearby hill stands the country church of San Gavino a Monte, medieval in origin, and on the outskirts the church of San Leonardo, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees. The main feasts fall in May, starting with San Gavino on 1 May, and keep alive the memory of pastoral traditions.
