Castello di Salvaterra, Medieval castle in Iglesias, Italy
The castle features a quadrangular layout with three towers, including two side towers and one central tower containing the main entrance point.
Built during the late 13th century under Pisan rule, the castle was captured by Aragonese forces in 1324 and underwent several structural modifications.
The castle represents military architecture from medieval Sardinia and stands as a testament to the island's strategic defensive networks.
The castle maintains regular opening hours for visitors and offers guided tours explaining its architectural features and historical development.
A preserved drawing from 1358 documents the original structure, which was later merged with a neo-Gothic villa and glass factory in the 1800s.
