Nuraghe Nuraxi Passeri

In the astonishing Nuraghe trail that runs through Sardinia, giving it unrivalled old-world charm, stands the Nuraxi Passeri nuraghe at Pauli Arbarei.

The word nuraghe is the Sardinian for “pile of stones”, differently sized and physically juxtaposed on top of each other. Some vestiges of the foundations, a short line of big stones, are visible there and help us ideally imagine how the original building must have looked like.

As you contemplate the remains of this basalt stone building shaped like a truncated cone, a quite common feature in the plainer types of nuraghes, you can plunge into the wonderful echoes of an ancient population and imagine what happened inside the monumental, thick building, as you are swept into an extremely ancient architectural world that will engage all your senses for a truly unforgettable experience.
