Su Nuraxi of Barumini

Su Nuraxi features a central tower reaching 18 meters high, constructed with massive stones arranged in concentric circles that narrow toward the summit point.

The complex, built during the second millennium BCE and inhabited until the third century CE, represents the primary defensive structures from the Bronze Age in Sardinia.

The site demonstrates the engineering capabilities of the Nuragic civilization through its network of chambers, passages, and ceremonial spaces within the fortified settlement.

Guided tours operate daily between 9:00 AM and sunset, providing detailed information about the archaeological excavations and architectural features of the complex.

The structure incorporates four peripheral towers connected by stone walls, with a covered courtyard that later expanded into a fortified village for soldiers and craftsmen.
