Su Nuraxi
This protected UNESCO World Heritage site is one of the best examples of Bronze Age defensive structures.
Overview
While Sardinia may be known for its glimmering beaches, a short trip inland will find you at the UNESCO World Heritage site Barumini Nuraxis, a prehistoric archaeological site dating back to the Bronze Age.
The impressive circular stone structures are no small feat, with the main Su Nuraxi tower reaching a height of 18 metres. How Bronze Age peoples constructed this important site remains a mystery. It is an intriguing and eye-opening cultural site you should add to your itinerary.
