Santu
Lussurgiu is a village of medieval origin. A place full of history,
culture, folklore and artwork. At a altitude of 503 meters, it is situated
inside the biggest extinct volcano of Sardinia, in a Natural Reserve
called Sinis-Montiferru, which is also very close to Sardinia’s
enchanting coast. Protected by Mediterranean oak forests, always cool
in the summer and rich of many springs, the mountain of Montiferru allows
a breathtaking views from the rough cliffs of the coast of Bosa to the
dunes of the penisola of Sinis near Oristano, as well as to the Gennargentu
mountains. The area is particularly rich in archaeological treasures from the past: starting with the proto-sardinian time (“domus de Janas,” “dolmen,” “tombe dei giganti,” holy wells,” and “nuraghi”), the Phoenician-Punic period and the Roman time. There are noteworthy examples of religious architecture from the early-Christian periods as well as Pisan-Romanesque examples and the Renaissance period. Its position in the central-west area of Sardinia is ideal for day excursions to anywhere on the entire island, from coastal zones and plains to mountain regions. |
