Nuraghe Santu Antine, Torralba

A beautifully preserved Nuraghe in the Logudoro region of Sardinia ( Northwest). The site is well organised for individual or group tours, with a ticket office/souvenir shop, a bar with snacks and hot and cold drinks, and public restrooms. The full price ticket is 8€, which is fair since it goes to the maintenance expenses. You can take a walk all around and inside the Nuraghe, up to the top terrace, which offers an astounding view of the valley. There is no wheelchair nor assisted access to the upper levels, that you can reach by a very steep and tall set of stone steps, so keep this in mind when you visit. There are informative panels all around, to explain the history and architecture of the site.

Must see! Well preserved and presented (lighting and signs around the sight). There is a free Audioguide-App (Santu Antine) which is perfect: just the right amount of information and length of the audios.

“The house of the King”, a megalithic compound “built between the Middle Bronze Age (16th century) and the Iron Age (9th century BC)”. Made with basalt blocks, used to have three floors. Some coming studies, shown how its structure is oriented following the solstices.

Is worth the visit despite the high entrance fee. One you're inside of this unbelievably for the time when build monumental complex, you really feel humility before the ability to build of our ancestors. The inner corridors, stairs, terrace, thickness of walls all built to preserve its inhabitants still standing after some 3000 years...

Beautiful ancient construction which still is largely in good shape taking into account it's age. The central Tower has lots of internal tunnels and stairs which lead you to the roof and basement. The latter is fairly big and cool place in both senses of the word... Tickets (adult) cost 8€.
