Nuraghe Sa Domu 'e s'Orcu

The structure features two ancient stone towers connected by a rectangular courtyard, with the main tower reaching a height of 8.10 meters.

Archaeological excavations conducted in 1924 by Antonio Taramelli revealed multiple layers of occupation dating back to the Nuragic civilization of Sardinia.

The name Sa Domu 'e s'Orcu translates to House of the Ogre, reflecting local folklore integrated into this Bronze Age megalithic structure.

Visitors can access the site via a 300-meter walking path from the designated parking area, with directional signs guiding the way from Sarroch.

The northern tower contains an entrance to a terrace positioned four meters high, accessed through a corridor within walls measuring 2.60 meters thick.
