The
Sardinia region is rich in castles, towers, and historic
houses, a strong testimony of medieval architecture. A dense network of manors
spreads over the whole territory, in the plains, on the gentle hill slopes and
perched on rocky mountains, surrounded by vineyards, beech and chestnut woods.
Built in strategic positions, they dominate the surrounding valleys, often with
mighty crenellated walls and lively interior decorations made on frescoed walls
to recall the opulence of the local noble families. Many can be visited, still
others used as private homes, and still others only ruins bearing witness to a
glorious past. Discover with Visititaly, the fortresses, the villas, the forts,
the historic buildings, the noble residences and all the places linked to
culture that characterize the Sardinia region. If you have visited a castle and would like to share your experience with others, please report it here!
