A few steps from the sea, on a granite promontory in Santa Teresa Gallura, the Nuragic civilization has left some of its most fascinating traces, revealing its intimate, everyday and spiritual aspects. In the archaeological complex of Lu Brandali you will make a journey through time, among dwellings, ‘workshops’, defensive and funerary structures of a past dated between the 14th century and the 10th century B.C.
The evidence of the distant past stretches along the slopes of the promontory, surrounded by lush Mediterranean scrub. On the summit, developed on staggered levels to take advantage of the rocky conformation, stands a nuraghe (which cannot be visited because it has not yet been excavated) characterized by mixed architectural elements, ‘corridor’ and ‘tholos’: it has a keep surrounded by an ante-mural with two towers, one used in later centuries as a furnace.
