Su Nuraxi and Zapata House

A symbolic monument of a mythical historical period

The nuraghe are exceptional monuments halfway between defensive and civil construction, they have survived to the present day as evidence of a millenary culture linked to the megalithic civilizations of the Mediterranean basin. The Nuragic civilization played an important role in the spread of the Mycenaean culture and later of the Phoenician one, even if some of its peculiarities remain shrouded in mystery, perhaps incomprehensible because they are foreign to classical Greek culture.

The site of Su Nuraxi represents the most complete and best preserved example of a nuraghe. It has been registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1997.
Casa Zapata is a fascinating seventeenth-century palace that expresses the desire for affirmation of a noble Spanish family that reveals unexpected Nuragic testimonies, ancient documents and popular memory of the early twentieth century. Since 2006, the Spanish residence has been a museum center where we can visit the archaeological and ethnographic museum of this wonderful town in central southern Sardinia.
