Culture

A moving experience

Cagliari is a vivacious center of culture and proudly maintains in its memory its complex and fascinating history. The doors of the castello quarter birth, on the ashes of the old Piedmontese arsenal, the Citadel of Museums (Cittadella dei Musei). within the hallowed archives of the Archeological Museum , where one can undoubtedly appreciate the wealth of the island , rest the famous nuragic broze statues as well the statues from the roman period. A few steps down the road one finds oneself immersed in the treasures of the Pinacoteca nazionale amonst which are the sardinian and catalan retabli from 400

The ancient cathedral a little further down encloses and preserves in the museo del duomo precious treasures , the fruit of eons of sacred historty. The imposing bastions, with the elegant "covered" walks, from where one can soak in a breathtaking view . The cultural heritage is today enriched by various exhibiton spaces thats, during the year, are home to a wide range of exhibitions and conferences. The Lazzaretto on the Sant'Elia hill , the ex- Vetreri at Pirri and The EXMA , the old city Abatoir , in the heart of the city. Losing oneself in the little strrets and alleys immersed in the testimony of the past is an extremely emotional experience.
