The historic building is owned by the Pittau family. Initially, before its construction, the area housed a wine cellar intended for storing wine, a product of the vineyards belonging to the same family.
The structure was erected prior to the outbreak of World War I, using sandstone blocks, a material obtained through salvage from excavations made during the construction process. Initially conceived as a private residence, the house was organized in such a way that the ground floor was for daytime use, while the upper floor was for nighttime rest.
When the mansion was abandoned, it was converted into the headquarters of the Is Cogas de Biddaxidru Association, thus becoming a house-museum. All the rooms, preserved in their original form, house a historical reconstruction related to the legend that permeates the town of Villacidro: that of the witches. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore spaces in the house devoted to thematic corners, including amulets, ointments, and fumigations. These rooms are inhabited by austere-looking female figures, contributing to an evocative and engaging atmosphere.
