Porto Flavia, a port built in 1925 into a cliff above the sea near Nebida in southwest Sardinia, is an impressive feat of mining engineering. It served as a loading dock for zinc and featured two tunnels connecting it to the nearby mine for efficient mineral transportation. Today, visitors can tour the site by appointment with a guide due to safety reasons. The port's dramatic location and stunning views make it a must-see attraction on the Iglesiente coast.
Interesting place with interesting history why it was build the way it was.
Great tour guide with fluent english explaining everything about the history of the place.
Henk S — Google review
The tour is actually about 40 minutes, 20 of which are waiting for another group to pass. Not much to see, but i love the idea of being inside one of the most interesting engineering sites. Also the lower level is inaccessible unfortunately.
Unusual: not a mine per se but the tunnel used to transport lead, zinc and silver from the mines to the ship (lady guide with the Bansky tattoo could be less sarcastic with her replies, otherwise it was a positive experience )
Porto Flavia is a unique and impressive site where history meets nature. The old mining port carved into the cliff offers stunning sea views and a fascinating story of engineering. A must-see for anyone visiting the area.
Interesting spot and part of Sardegna history. Also really beautiful views. The guide was very nice. I just would love to learn a bit more as information provided was very simple and I learnt more from AI after the trip
What an amazing place the history and the work that went into carving a bulk shipping and handling facility into the centre of mountain of rock. Well worth the effort to get here and check it out❤️
A bit expensive for what you are getting to visit. The site itself is unique but the tour was underwhelming. The guide seemed like they were reading off a script instead of being actually knowledgeable. It's worth the experience if you enjoy doing your own research.
You can park near to Porto Flavia. But notice it’s a dirt road.
The guided tour was very interesting. You walk through the tunnel and see how it was build. At the end you are standing in front of the sea and enjoy a beautiful view.

Salvaterra Castle, also known as the castle of San Guantino, is a medieval fortress located on Salvaterra hill in Iglesias. It was likely built by Count Ugolino Della Gherardesca after 1258 and served a strategic role in overseeing the city and communicating with other castles in the Republic of Pisa's territories.
We really enjoyed the tour. The building wasn’t too impressive, the texts were all in Italian and we practically did not understand a word the guide was saying, but his infectious impeccable energy had us hooked. Also, we learned a new Italian word; Questo. Brilliant!
Gerald S — Google review
We went online to check the opening hours and drove 45 minutes from where we were to find it was closed.
That aside, the views from the top of the hill overlooking Iglesias were stunning.
Alas we could not enter the castle grounds itself as it was all closed up.
What a disappointment
The climb to the castle is sadly full of trash. The view is ok, but the castle itself is not really worth it imo.
Probably an interesting place, but closed and you can see nothing of the castle if you are outside the gates
Sunday afternoon was closed. One of few atracion in the City and closed 😂
Closed!
Ok
A nice hilltop castle (not open at the time) wirh nice views.
Catholic church
Convento di San Francesco, located in Piazza del Municipio, is a stunning church with a rich history dating back to the 14th century. Its Catalan Gothic style and additional architectural elements added over the centuries make it a unique sight to behold. The church, constructed with sedimentary and volcanic stone, features a single nave plan divided by bays and a smooth facade adorned with two oculi and a rose window aligned with the portal.

Historic Walking Areas
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Centro storico, the heart of Iglesias, is a quiet neighborhood with a rich history that transports visitors to ancient times. Walking through its narrow alleys feels like stepping into an Iberian village, evoking childhood memories for some. The area is adorned with colorful houses, decorative altars on facades, and charming wrought iron balconies, creating a picturesque atmosphere reminiscent of towns in Extremadura.
(Translated by Google) The soul of Iglesias opens up in the silent neighborhood of Sa Costera. And in silence you walk through the alleys that exude ancient Iberian air. Some Spaniards say that images of towns in Extremadura pass before their eyes, reminiscent of when they were children. Thus you come across colorful houses, votive altars on the facades, wrought iron balconies. And together with the love request of a well-kept historic center there is the castle garden which leads to the unfortunately non-functioning lift. Hospitality also means embracing everyone, because Iglesias is a place of brotherhood. The neighborhood can be visited on foot, without haste, starting from the central square or from Piazza Municipio towards Sa Costera and the medieval walls of the castle.
(Original)
L'anima di Iglesias si apre nel silenzioso quartiere di Sa Costera. E in silenzio si percorrono i vicoli che trasudano antica aria iberica. Alcuni spagnoli dicono che passano davanti ai loro occhi immagini di paesi dell'Estremadura, reminescenze di quando erano bambini. Così s'incontrano case colorate, altarini votivi sulle facciate, balconcini in ferro battuto. E insieme alla richiesta d'amore di un centro storico curato si trova il giardino del castello che porta all'ascensore purtroppo non funzionante. Accoglienza è anche abbracciare tutti, perché Iglesias è luogo di fratellanza. Il quartiere è visitabile a piedi, senza fretta partendo dalla piazza centrale o da piazza municipio verso sa Costera e le mura medievali del castello.
Andrea P — Google review
(Translated by Google) A medieval center that tells of a not so distant past. In summer it is full of details that make the environment welcoming and relaxing. Come to Iglesias and discover the festively decorated streets of the Corso. You can breathe in an air rich in history... Meeting friends for an aperitif in the many outdoor venues and enjoying that beautiful feeling of city life that only a town in southern Sardinia can give you.
(Original)
Un centro medievale che racconta di un passato non tanto lontano. In estate è ricco di dettagli che rendono l'ambiente accogliente e rilassante. Venire a Iglesias e scoprire le vie del corso addobbate a festa. Si respira un aria ricca di storia... Incontrare gli amici per un aperitivo nei tanti locali all' aperto e godersi quella bella sensazione di vita cittadina che solo una cittadina del sud Sardegna sa' regalarvi.
(Translated by Google) Surprising Iglesias.! I did not expect to find such a nice and characteristic historical center, clean and very well kept, with its alleys and terraces with Spanish-style wrought iron railings. There are many places to eat and drink and the people are extremely kind and welcoming. Recommended visit

Sorprendente Iglesias.! Non mi aspettavo di trovare un centro storico così carino e caratteristico,pulito e tenuto molto bene,con i suoi vicoli e i terrazzini con le ringhiere in ferro battuto in stile spagnolo Ci sono molti locali dove mangiare e bere e le persone sono estremamente gentili e accoglienti Visita consigliata
The centro storico of Igleasias is quite small but absolutely stunning and very beautiful.
Definitely worth a day trip or, even better, a short stay.

(Translated by Google) Pretty little village, one of the most interesting in the south that we visited. Don't look for umbrellas if you go there off-season, they are only present in the summer. However, the small streets are pretty, the old walls are still visible, some pretty squares and churches
(Original)
Joli petit village, un des plus interressant du sud que nous avons parcouru. Ne cherchez pas après les parapluies si vous y allez hors saison, ils ne sont présents qu'en période estivale.

The Monumental Cemetery of Iglesias is a resting place for numerous fighters from both the first and second world wars. Many of their remains have been repatriated, while others still lie buried here. This cemetery evokes melancholy as it tells stories of each individual interred within its grounds. Adjacent to it, there is a spacious parking area. Additionally, this ancient graveyard showcases a plethora of exquisite sculptures that enhance its beauty and solemnity.
(Translated by Google) Simply beautiful. Very old tombs, with somewhat macabre details such as a couple of rows exclusively of children and babies, with real photos of their burials. There are guided tours, we found out late

Ancient graveyard with many beautiful statues.
(Translated by Google) Visit with the guides of the Municipality of Iglesias, Giulia and Carla were excellent. I recommend the evening tour, in addition to the timely and precise explanations of the Tombs, some of which are beautiful by Sartori, also many anecdotes, components to the guides for the valuable research. 🤗🤗😉

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful and well-kept monumental cemetery, where you can see various sculptural works by Giuseppe Sartori, an artist of undoubted talent.
(Original)
Cimitero monumentale molto bello e curato, in cui poter vedere svariate opere scultoree di Giuseppe Sartori, artista dall'induscusso talento.
(Translated by Google) History
Many fighters from the First and Second World Wars were buried in this cemetery.
The remains of many have returned to their homeland, others are still buried here.
Like all cemeteries it is a sad place, full of stories linked to every single individual who rests there.
Outside there is a large car park.
(Original)
Storia
In questo cimitero sono stati sepolti molti combattenti della prima e seconda guerra mondiale.
Le spoglie di molti sono rientrate nella loro terra d'origine , altri si trovano ancora sepolti qui.
Come tutti i cimiteri è un luogo triste, pieno di storie legate ad ogni singolo individuo che li riposa.
All'esterno c'è un ampio parcheggio.
(Translated by Google) A monumental cemetery with some statues of great value and splendid artistic value. Some works are by Sartori but unfortunately some have lost part of their original appearance over time and neglect. The historical part deserves more respect and greater protection and the restoration of their initial conditions but above all the cleaning of dust and smog. It deserves greater care and respect and above all the restyling it deserves.
(Original)
Un cimitero monumentale con alcune statue di grande pregio e di splendido valore artistico. Alcune opere sono del Sartori ma alcune purtroppo con il tempo e con l'incuria hanno perso parte del loro aspetto originale. La parte storica meriterebbe più rispetto ed una maggiore salvaguardia e il ripristino delle loro condizioni iniziali ma soprattutto la pulizia della polvere e dello smog. Meriterebbe maggior cura e rispetto e soprattutto il restyling che merita.
(Translated by Google) It was built at the end of the 19th century next to, if not against, the decidedly older church of Valverde (13th century), which until the mid-1900s was more than half a kilometer away from the city. The ancient part of the cemetery is monumental, and preserves some tombs with statues by Sartorio (the same author of the war memorial in Piazza Oberdan). In recent times, the same "historical" part has been crowded with excessively modern tombs, somewhat ruining the atmosphere of the place. The remaining contemporary part is like all other cemeteries.
(Original)
È stato costruito alla fine dell'Ottocento accanto, per non dire addossato, alla decisamente più antica chiesa di Valverde (XIII secolo), che fino a metà del '900 era distante dalla città più di mezzo km. La parte antica del cimitero è monumentale, e conserva alcune sepolture con statue del Sartorio (lo stesso autore del monumento ai Caduti di piazza Oberdan). In tempi recenti, la stessa parte "storica" è stata affollata di tombe moderne oltre misura, rovinando un po' l'atmosfera del luogo. La restante parte contemporanea è come tutti gli altri cimiteri.

Monumental cemetery with statues of great artistic value, including those created by the sculptor Giuseppe Sartorio.
Note the legend of the statue "the little girl with the circle" which was unfortunately damaged in the past, like other statues, by acts of vandalism.

Eglise fermée, des travaux juste à côté avec un échafaudage
(Translated by Google) A small historic church of Iglesias located in Piazza Manzoni and where, in an important version, the splendid feast of the Madonna delle Grazie was held. The church is really nice and has always been one of the most popular places of worship. A stone's throw from the church is the Convent of the Order of Friars Minor Conventual which unfortunately, with the decrease in vocations, is constantly at risk of closure.
(Original)
Una piccola chiesa storica di Iglesias dislocata in piazza Manzoni e dove veniva fatta, in versione importante, la splendida festa della Madonna delle grazie. La chiesa è davvero carina ed è sempre stata uno dei luoghi di culto di maggiore frequentazione. A due passi dalla chiesa c'è il Convento dell' Ordine dei Frati Minori Conventuali che purtroppo con la diminuzione delle vocazioni sono costantemente a rischio chiusura.
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately only seen from the outside, so the judgment is necessarily incomplete. In the evening it seems under-appreciated, having no specific lighting; the facade seems particular more than anything else due to how it is built compared to the rest of the building, i.e. inclined.
(Original)
Purtroppo vista solo dall'esterno, per cui il giudizio è forzatamente incompleto. Di sera sembra poco valorizzata, non avendo alcuna illuminazione specifica; la facciata sembra particolare più che altro per come è costruita rispetto al resto dell'edificip, ovvero inclinata.
(Translated by Google) Very nice and well maintained.
(Original)
Molto bello e ben curato.
(Translated by Google) Historic early Christian church, at the time the only building of worship in the human settlement of the then called "Ville Eclesiae" (500/600 AD). The church was rebuilt in the Middle Ages in what was then called "Villa Eclesiae". The architecture currently presents itself in a late Gothic/Romanesque architectural style, in the seventeenth century the convent of the Poor Clare nuns and the convent of the Franciscan friars were annexed. In the upper part of the facade there are external renovations dating back to the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th century Baroque. To visit.
(Original)
Chiesa storica paleocristiana, all'epoca unico edificio di culto del nucleo abitativo umano della allora chiamata "Ville Eclesiae"(sec. 500/600 d.C.). La chiesa venne ricostruita in epoca medioevale nell'allora chiamata "Villa Eclesiae". L'architettura attualmente si presenta con uno stile architettonico tardo gotico/romanico, in epoca seicentesca venne annesso il convento delle monache Clarisse e il convento dei frati francescani. Nella parte alta della facciata si rilevano rifacimenti esterni databili fra la fine del '600 e gli inizi dell '700 barocco. Da visitare.
(Translated by Google) The church of S. Saturno, later dedicated to S. Chiara and then to the Madonna delle Grazie, is in the historic center
of Iglesias, a short distance from the cathedral. There is a lack of documentary information on the layout of the church,
attributable to the end of the 13th century. Of the Gothic building with a single nave, rebuilt in the 18th century
century, the facade remains (perfectly to the west, 8 m), mutilated of the terminal today in late Baroque forms.
The facing is made of medium-sized limestone ashlars, cut with accuracy. From above, shoe-shaped plinth
the robust corner pilasters and the two flat pilasters with a semi-hexagonal section rise up, enclosing the
architraved and lunette portal, connected by horizontal arching; the lower part
of the façade is thus divided into three mirrors. The portal has a semicircular relief arch with eyebrows.
The architrave with classical phytomorphic branch decoration rests on capitals decorated like those of the
pilasters. The bows have semicircular ring nuts cut flush and wide corbels mostly with flat leaves
with a sharp top. In line with the portal there is an ogival window with a hanging eyebrow and light
originally mullioned window.
(Original)
La chiesa di S. Saturno, poi intitolata a S. Chiara e quindi alla Madonna delle Grazie, è nel centro storico
di Iglesias, a breve distanza dalla cattedrale. Mancano notizie documentarie sull’impianto della chiesa,
ascrivibile alla fine del XIII secolo. Della fabbrica gotica ad aula mononavata, ricostruita nel XVIII
secolo, resta la facciata (perfettamente a ovest, m 8), mutila del terminale oggi in forme tardobarocche.
Il paramento è in conci calcarei di media pezzatura, tagliati con accuratezza. Dall’alto zoccolo a scarpa
salgono le robuste paraste d’angolo e le due piatte lesene a sezione semiesagonale, che rinserrano il
portale architravato e lunettato, raccordandosi mediante l’archeggiatura orizzontale; la parte inferiore
del prospetto risulta così divisa in tre specchi. Il portale ha arco di scarico semicircolare sopraccigliato.
L’architrave con ornato classicheggiante a tralcio fitomorfo poggia su capitelli decorati come quelli delle
lesene. Gli archetti hanno ghiera semicircolare tagliata a filo e larghi peducci perlopiù con piatte foglie
dalla cima aguzza. In asse con il portale si apre una finestra ogivale con sopracciglio pensile e luce
originariamente bifora.
(Translated by Google) Church dedicated to the Madonna delle Grazie with convent of the Capuchin friars.

(Original)
Bellissima chiesa. Consiglio di visitarla e se possibile avere informazioni dei candelieri che sono presenti nella chiesa
(Translated by Google) Church owned by the Archconfraternity of the Virgin of Pietà del Santo Monte. The building, whose façade was never completed, was built between the end of the century
XV and the beginning of the following century, it offers the usual characteristics of late Catalan Gothic: a hall divided into spans by pointed transverse arches and a presbytery covered by a cross vault. On the back wall a curved niche houses the simulacrum of the titular saint. The stoup located to the left of the entrance can be traced back to the original structure. The pile is supported by a truncated pyramidal base which supports the stem decorated with a skein decoration and pods, and which tapers to a narrow collar from which it begins to widen up to the connection of the basin. On the outside the latter has a decoration that recalls the ovule and palmette compositions of ancient tradition. Inside the basin there are four large fish carved in high relief, scattered haphazardly.
Subsequently, in the 17th century, a side chapel with a "barrel" vault was added to the original building. In it are kept the simulacra which are carried in procession during the religious rites of Holy Week.
(Original)
Chiesa di proprietà dell'Arciconfraternita della Vergine della Pietà del Santo Monte.L’edificio, il cui prospetto non venne mai ultimato, costruito tra la fine del secolo
XV e gli inizi del successivo, propone i consueti caratteri del tardo gotico catalano:aula scandita in campate da archi acuti trasversali e presbiterio coperto da volta a crociera. Sulla parete di fondo una nicchia centinata ospita il simulacro del santo titolare. Riconducibile all'impianto originario è l'acquasantiera posta a sinistra dell'ingresso. La pila è sostenuta da una base tronco piramidale che regge il fusto ornato da una decorazione a matassa e da bacellature, e che si rastrema fino a uno stretto collarino da cui comincia ad allargarsi fino all'innesto del bacile. All'esterno quest'ultimo presenta una decorazione che richiama le composizioni ad ovuli e palmette di tradizione antica. All'interno del bacile si trovano scolpiti ad alto rilievo quattro grossi pesci, sparsi disordinatamente.
Successivamente, secolo XVII, all'originario corpo di fabbrica venne aggiunta una cappella laterale con volta “a botte”. In essa sono custoditi i simulacri che in occasione dei riti religiosi della Settimana Santa vengono portati in processione.

The Mineral Art and Mineralogy Museum, housed in the Istituto Minerario Asproni, is a must-visit to understand the city's mining history. The museum showcases minerals, fossils, and industrial archaeological finds in three large halls. Visitors can also explore the abandoned Monteponi Mine for a deeper insight into Sardinia's mining heritage. Additionally, the Salvaterra Castle offers a permanent exhibition on Medieval History and Torture for those interested in historical artifacts.
The museum is located in the very center, where free parking is quite difficult to find. That's why we chose the parking lot of the retail chain and with some luck found the entrance to the museum. The museum consists of three large halls, in which showcases with specimens of minerals, fossils and industrial archaeological finds are exhibited. The museum collection includes almost 3,800 mineralogical, petrographic and fossil finds from all over the world, enriched by a collection of around a hundred archaeological finds originating from mining activities, from the Nuragic, Phoenician-Punic, Roman, Pisan and Aragonese medieval periods.
A collection of finds that represents the identity of the Iglesiente area and brings together didactic, mineralogical and paleontological collections composed of local minerals and fossils and specimens from deposits spread over a regional, national and global territory. OK, it's "information from the web", so I'm not adding my own knowledge. Thanks for the info. Worth a visit. VERY, VERY, friendly staff!!!! Thank you for your engagement and effort. In any case, everything was OK. We recommend!!

A very interesting museum with a collection of 3800 mineralogical, petrographic, and fossil finds from around the world.
Great museum with an amazing collection of minerals. I particularly enjoyed the local mining history and all the different tools and machinery. The guide is only available in Italian.
Great stories , great guide , a good oportunity to learn! A must visit in iglesias! Will certainly come back with new people in my next visit in this city.
We had a fantastic guided tour.
The topic is fascinating and the collections of the museum are stunning.
The training tunnel is spot on!
We were also bewildered by the great mineral collection.
Recommended to fully understand the local history.
Well worth the visit. I would recommend this museum to anybody visiting Iglesias. Thanks again to our guide who opened the museum for us on New Year's Eve :)
Very interesting guided tour in Italian though I believe there is some provision in English to. Used to be a mining Scholl explained about mining industry locally
Francesco, one of the guides was extremely helpful and a mine of information. I recommend this museum 100% if you're visiting Sardinia

Very pleasant little sandy beach with a stunning view and warm water. There are some ciosc restaurants and beach service which offers also boat trips to see the rock Pan di Zucchero little closer and the Porto Flavia which is constructed in the rock and can be seen only from the sea

Our hotel told us to get a bus to madua beach. So we did. But the bus dropped us off 25 minutes away, we had to walk down the mountain but once there the beach was nice, but very choppy!
Had a nightmare getting back to the bus stop!
Wouldn't recommend unless you get a taxi or drive!
so beautiful spot
Little nice v Place and Restaurant t ops in off. Small Food List but great wine acailabe
Small but very pretty beach. A great way to refresh a little bit in the hot Sarrdinian summer, maybe before visiting Porto Flavia! On the beach there is also a bar/restaurant and there is plenty of parking around the area (both for cars and caravans). Definitely reccomended for a short break or a full day at the beach.
Great beach. Not too busy. Can pay for sun lounger and umbrellas. Sand was really hot. There are toilets, but you have to pay. Water wasn’t too deep, quite clear. There was a little platform for people to jump off, but water looked shallow there.
Amazing place. Pictures, time on a sad. Relax
Best place where to admire a sunset.!the beach itself is small and maybe not too great but there is a good spot for jumps and snorkeling around all those rocks is the best.

The Miniera di San Giovanni is a captivating and mesmerizing destination that should not be missed. This enchanting place offers an indescribable spectacle when you arrive, leaving you in awe of its beauty. The knowledgeable guides are highly skilled and well-prepared, providing an experience that comes highly recommended. The mine itself is filled with wonder and magic, creating an atmosphere that is truly unique.
Book in advance at tourist office. Step walk of 1 km up from bindua bus stop. Best of similar caves I have seen in Sardinia. Some superb rock formations. Guided tour is on Italian.

Need booking online before as otherwise fully booked https://www.iglesiasturismo.it/en/plan-your-trip/tickets/
Was a nice experience to visit a mine in an electric train, using elevator to go down in mine and cave
This place is out of this world. Looks like an underground cathedral, made of alabaster columns, and topped with ivory pinnacles. There are stalactites and stalagmites everywhere, along with other formations. And, to top it off, an amazingly clear and turquoise lake sparkles at the bottom of the cave. Unbelievable...
We really enjoyed our guided tour of the Grotta di Santa Barbara.
The tour guide was very friendly and open to every question, which was then answered in a conclusive manner.
The tour we took was at 3.30 pm and bilingual in Italian and English. It took us overall a bit more than 60 minutes with a group of approximately 24 people and included: Ride into the mine via mine train, elevator ride (which was a bit cozy), taking the stairs up to the cave, looking around in the cave with a lot of explanations, time to take individual photos in the cave and then the way back out of the mine.
The cave itself is really beautiful and very astonishing to look at. Can recommend!
Very cool to ride the train into the mine and get to see a unique piece of geology, truly spectacular
Beautiful cave formations seen only in a few places. We had a very informative and interesting guide.
What a surprise. Worth the visit.
Definitely worth to visit especially when it’s 36 degrees outside

I had an incredible time at Cantina Aru, where Enrico guided me through a delightful 3-hour experience. I had the opportunity to sample 5 wines and enjoy local cheese, bread, and sausage. The highlight was getting to taste wine during various fermentation processes. This vineyard boasts a charming museum and exceptional staff. Enrico and the passionate sales manager were always available to answer questions, even with the language barrier. If given the chance, I would definitely visit again!
Although we came by unannounced we got to taste a lot of their wines. We felt very welcome and bought some beautiful bottles. There is also a tradition farm you can visit. Thank you Mario!

Amazing experience sampling delicious wines paired with local cheese and salami. A must if you are a wine lover. The owner was very nice he gave us a tour of the winery. While tasting the wine he explained about the wine and the history of the locality. Will definitely visit again
What a grape escape! The winery was top-notch, and Enrico was the perfect pour-fection! He gave us a taste of the good life with his expert knowledge of the wines and grapes, making us feel like we were part of the wine-drinking elite!
Thanks from the the DC girl and the 2 UK girls!
I emailed Cantina Aru a few weeks before our visit and got a quick reply from Enrico helping to set up a visit for us. When we visited they were doing work on a new tasting space which we got to see in progress and will make a beautiful space to taste when it's finished. The tasting includes 5 wines and Enrico told us about the local producers where he picked up some cheese and salami to go with the wines. Everything was delicious and Enrico was very warm and welcoming. We took home 2 bottles and would have taken more if we had the space to travel with them!
Enrico is an absolute legend. We came in for wine tasting and he explained everything in so much detail (in English). We learnt so much about all the wines and history about the area which we didn’t know about.
Would highly recommend anyone to visit this little gem!
Highly recommend a trip to this vineyard! We notified the vineyard about our arrival a day in advance and they were very welcoming and happy to give us a free tour. We loved their hospitality and kindness. Enrico told us about the wine production and offered us 5 different wines together with some local produce to snack on. Not to mention that his English is fantastic! Thank you very much!!
It was great to visit this small local winery - we didn’t know the wines offered by this place so we were offered wine tasting in the nice surrounding. The white wine is delicious! Great quality for a reasonable price. Will be ideal as a present.
We had the most amazing experience with Enrico, who showed us Cantina Aru and their wines for about 3 hours. We tasted 5 wines, and some local cheese, bread and sausage, and at the end we even got to taste wine during 3 different fermentation processes. A beautiful vineyard with a nice little museum, amazing wines and the most amazing staff. Enrico was great, the sales manager was so passionate although speaking Italian he often came and answered questions that Enrico would translate. If we comeback we will visit again! Must try experience if you are in the area.

Miniera Monteponi is an enjoyable place to visit, offering a pool and a welcoming hat making community. With numerous dining, accommodation, shopping, walking, driving, and swimming options available nearby. The close proximity to the sea provides warm beach waters due to the presence of wave breakers that prevent strong tides. It is a fascinating mine with many original characteristics still intact.
It is very very fun. And I like it because it has a pool and the hat making community is very nice and there are a lot of places to eat and drink and sleep and shop and walk and drive and swim. The sea is also close by and it has wave breakers which stop the tide being strong and it makes the beach water (sea water) warm.

Really cool mine to visit. Tours start every full hour from 10 till 12 and 14 till 17h (only in Italian). Since we were the only visitors the guide tried his best to explain everything in English. Beautiful mine with many authentic features left.
Really cool mine, very interesting tour from our guide about the mine's history, minerals, wokers and more. Tour was both in english and italian. Bring a jacket!
Nice visit to the historic past of the mine live in Sardinia, the guided visit is a must (very interesting).
Love this place.It has a lot of history
(Translated by Google) Guided tour full of information and a place where you can still feel the suffering of those who often worked there in extreme conditions. All around industrial archeology to visit.
(Original)
Visita guidata ricca di informazioni e luogo dove si respira ancora la sofferenza di chi ci lavorava spesso in condizioni estreme. Tutt'attorno archeologia industriale da visitare.
(Translated by Google) This place literally takes your breath away. The ruins of the former Monteponi mine are a true journey through time - raw, authentic and moving. Walking among the empty buildings, I felt like I was looking into an abandoned world, where you can still hear the echo of the hard work of miners and the industrial hustle and bustle of decades ago.
Ruined halls, metal structures, rusty equipment and crumbling buildings create an incredible, almost cinematic atmosphere. Nature is slowly starting to reclaim the area, which adds mystery and melancholy to the place. For lovers of urbex, industrial history or photography, this is a must-see on the map of Sardinia.
It was an extraordinary journey - not only physical, but also emotional. Maniera Monteponi is a space that will stay in your memory for a long time. I recommend it to anyone looking for something more than just beaches and resorts.
(Original)
To miejsce dosłownie zapiera dech w piersiach. Ruiny dawnej kopalni Monteponi to prawdziwa podróż w czasie — surowa, autentyczna i poruszająca. Wędrując wśród pustostanów, miałem wrażenie, jakbym zaglądał do porzuconego świata, w którym wciąż słychać echo ciężkiej pracy górników i przemysłowego zgiełku sprzed dekad.
Zrujnowane hale, metalowe konstrukcje, zardzewiałe urządzenia i rozsypujące się budynki tworzą niesamowity, niemal filmowy klimat. Natura zaczyna powoli odzyskiwać teren, co dodaje miejscu tajemniczości i melancholii. Dla miłośników urbexu, historii przemysłu lub fotografii to wręcz obowiązkowy punkt na mapie Sardynii.
To była niezwykła podróż — nie tylko fizyczna, ale i emocjonalna. Maniera Monteponi to przestrzeń, która zostaje w pamięci na długo. Polecam każdemu, kto szuka czegoś więcej niż tylko plaż i kurortów.
(Translated by Google) Impressive mining site in terms of size, rich in history and from an architectural point of view. We were only able to visit the Villamarina Gallery because the other structures have not yet been made safe. The visit lasted an hour.

The Cathedral of Saint Claire of Assisi is a unique and harmonious blend of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, built between 1284 and 1288. The cathedral features a square bell tower with an intriguing bell cast by Andrea Pisano in 1337. Inside, the Gothic elements are evident, creating a beautiful and cool space due to natural air flow. Visitors should ensure modest dress before entering this historic site.
Many churches in this picturesque city of western Sardinia named “church” in Spanish. The Cathedral is of course the most impressive one. Many stories to tell about, history, architecture... It’s located right in the middle of the historical centre. With the city hall, they form a great gathering Piazza municipio.

(Translated by Google) The Cathedral of Santa Chiara, located in the heart of the historic center of Iglesias, is the main place of worship in the city and one of the most significant examples of medieval religious architecture in Sardinia. Built in the 13th century at the behest of the rulers of the Pisan dynasty, it was dedicated to Saint Clare of Assisi, patron saint of the city.
The building, initially in Gothic style, has undergone numerous interventions over the centuries, especially in the Baroque era, which have modified its original appearance. On the outside, the simple but elegant façade is striking, while the interior houses works of art, marble altars and precious liturgical furnishings. The chapel of the Blessed Sacrament is particularly evocative.
The Cathedral is still the center of the city's religious life today, home to solemn celebrations and events linked to the mining and cultural tradition of Iglesias.
A place that combines spirituality, art and history, telling the profound identity of the city.
(Original)
La Cattedrale di Santa Chiara, situata nel cuore del centro storico di Iglesias, è il principale luogo di culto della città e uno dei più significativi esempi di architettura religiosa medievale in Sardegna. Edificata nel XIII secolo per volere dei sovrani della dinastia pisana, fu dedicata a Santa Chiara d'Assisi, patrona della città.
L’edificio, inizialmente in stile gotico, ha subito numerosi interventi nel corso dei secoli, soprattutto in epoca barocca, che ne hanno modificato l’aspetto originario. All’esterno colpisce la facciata semplice ma elegante, mentre l’interno custodisce opere d’arte, altari marmorei e preziosi arredi liturgici. Particolarmente suggestiva è la cappella del Santissimo Sacramento.
La Cattedrale è ancora oggi centro della vita religiosa cittadina, sede di celebrazioni solenni e manifestazioni legate alla tradizione mineraria e culturale di Iglesias.
Un luogo che unisce spiritualità, arte e storia, raccontando l’identità profonda della città.

Cascata di Piscina Irgas is truly a natural gem that beckons adventurers to explore its stunning surroundings. The journey to this enchanting waterfall is not for the faint-hearted, as it involves navigating through wild terrain and rugged paths. However, every step taken is rewarded with breathtaking views of lush forests filled with charming waterfalls and serene pools.
We came in October, so the river was dried up 🙈
However, so interesting to walk in the bed of the mountain river. Also, it opened up a nice way to hike up the mountains around the waterfall. It was spectacular. We enjoyed it so much!

The gravel road is quite a challenge on the last few kilometers to the parking but it's worth it. If you drive slow it's no problem at all with any car.
Very nice hiking. I was afraid of animals, but it was really beautiful. Waterfall was without water, but hus lake is also very nice.

(Translated by Google) Villacidro - Punta Piscina Irgas (on the way to the Cascata di Piscina Irgas)
To reach this waterfall, it's best to drive from Villacidro past Lago di Leni, along the cork oak and pine forests.
It's best to park your vehicle at the Cantina Ferrais and take a leisurely walk along a stream. There, you'll repeatedly come across impressive pools of the "Piscina Irgas" – a beautiful landscape.
Unfortunately, we didn't reach the Cascata di Piscina Irgas that day, but it was impressive anyway!
In some places, there's little water.

(Translated by Google) Built between 1872 and 1874 with the aim of creating a large infrastructure aimed at solving the problem of the extraction of underground water present in the Iglesiente metal-bearing basin which prevented the development of in-depth excavation and mineral extraction operations. The external structures of the Sella Shaft, of particular architectural value, which had housed the eduction pumps and the steam engines with their boilers, are definitively destined to host the technological services of the mine (mechanical workshop, forge and carpentry).

Realizzato tra il 1872 e il 1874 con lo scopo di creare una grande infrastruttura finalizzata a risolvere il problema dell’eduzione delle acque sotterranee presenti nel bacino metallifero dell’Iglesiente che impedivano di sviluppare in profondità le operazioni di scavo e di estrazione dei minerali. Le strutture esterne del Pozzo Sella, di particolare pregio architettonico, che avevano ospitato le pompe di eduzione e le macchine a vapore con le relative caldaie, vengono destinate definitivamente ad ospitare i servizi tecnologici della miniera (officina meccanica, forge e falegnameria).
(Translated by Google) Through a project in collaboration with the schools, municipality and Pozzo Sella association, it was possible to recover this part of the mining site which housed the old water suction pumps, then used as a workshop for the repair of mechanical parts.

Nestled on the outskirts of Iglesias, the ancient church of Our Lady of Valverde stands as a testament to history, dating back to the late 13th century. This Gothic structure, while simple in its decor and furnishings, exudes a serene charm that draws visitors in. Adjacent to it lies a Franciscan convent from the 1600s, remnants of which can still be seen today alongside a well that once served its cloister.
(Translated by Google) The Church of Our Lady of Valverde, located on the southern outskirts of Iglesias, is a fine example of medieval religious architecture that combines Romanesque and Catalan Gothic elements. Built at the end of the 13th century, probably during the domination of the counts of Gherardesca, it originally stood outside the city walls, near one of the main access roads to the city.
The facade, made of pink trachyte ashlars, is divided into three orders by horizontal molded frames. The first order has a portal with a round arch, surmounted by a molded eyebrow and decorated with corbels representing a lily and a bear. The second order houses a Gothic mullioned window with polychrome stained glass windows, while the third is decorated with trefoil arches that follow the shape of the gable roof. The interior, with a single nave, underwent significant transformations in 1592: the original trussed roof was replaced by pointed diaphragm arches that support the wooden roof, and the quadrangular presbytery was covered with a star cross vault with pendulous gems. The central gem depicts the Madonna and Child, while the four smaller gems bear engravings with the name of the author of the work, Melchiorre Serra, the date of execution (1592), the name of the curator of the factory, Antioco Spada, and the monogram of Christ JHS.
The Church of Our Lady of Valverde represents an important historical and artistic heritage of Iglesias, testifying to the cultural and spiritual richness of the city.
(Original)
La Chiesa di Nostra Signora di Valverde, situata nella periferia sud di Iglesias, è un pregevole esempio di architettura religiosa medievale che unisce elementi romanici e gotici catalani. Edificata alla fine del XIII secolo, probabilmente durante la dominazione dei conti della Gherardesca, sorgeva originariamente al di fuori delle mura cittadine, vicino a una delle principali vie d'accesso alla città.
La facciata, realizzata in conci di trachite rosa, è suddivisa in tre ordini da cornici orizzontali modanate. Il primo ordine presenta un portale con arco a tutto sesto, sormontato da un sopracciglio modanato e decorato con peducci rappresentanti un giglio e un orso. Il secondo ordine ospita una bifora gotica con vetrate policrome, mentre il terzo è decorato con archetti trilobati che seguono l'andamento del tetto a capanna.L'interno, a navata unica, ha subito significative trasformazioni nel 1592: l'originaria copertura a capriate è stata sostituita da archi diaframma a sesto acuto che sostengono il tetto ligneo, e il presbiterio quadrangolare è stato coperto con una volta a crociera stellare con gemme pendule. La gemma centrale raffigura la Madonna col Bambino, mentre le quattro gemme minori recano incisioni con il nome dell'autore dell'opera, Melchiorre Serra, la data di esecuzione (1592), il nome del curatore della fabbrica, Antioco Spada, e il monogramma di Cristo JHS.
La Chiesa di Nostra Signora di Valverde rappresenta un importante patrimonio storico e artistico di Iglesias, testimoniando la ricchezza culturale e spirituale della città.

Old cappuccini Church. Sunday main service is at 10am.
(Translated by Google) The church of S. Maria di Valverde, in the Middle Ages extra muros along one of the access roads to Villa di Chiesa
for the Castle gate, still remains isolated today on the immediate outskirts of the city of Iglesias along the
old road to Cagliari. There is a lack of documentary information on the Gothic building, which can be dated to the end of the 13th century
century. Of the layout structures of the single-nave hall, rebuilt in 1592, only parts of the sides and the
facade, facing south-west. The former are built in clay bricks, with terminal arches in trachyte; The
semicircular arches have a ring carved with phytomorphic motifs. The facade is installed with cantons
medium-sized trachytics. From bottom to top, the corner pilasters are connected via the plinth
with molded shoe, two thin frames dividing into three orders and the arching parallel to the slopes of the
pediment. The portal has jambs and architrave woven into the wall facing, with flush capitals. The external profile
of the relief arch is riveted (also along the diameter) by a bullnose frame. In the middle order one opens
large ogival window with compensatory mullioned window. The eyebrow extends seamlessly into the
frame at the base of the pediment. Here the thin molded piers extend, concluded by trefoiled arches with
multiple bezel. (Sardinia Culture)

La chiesa di S. Maria di Valverde, nel Medioevo extra muros lungo una delle vie di accesso a Villa di Chiesa
per la porta del Castello, si mantiene ancora oggi isolata all’immediata periferia della città di Iglesias lungo la
vecchia strada per Cagliari. Mancano notizie documentarie sulla fabbrica gotica, ascrivibile alla fine del XIII
secolo. Delle strutture d’impianto dell’aula mononavata, ricostruita nel 1592, restano tratti dei fianchi e la
facciata, rivolta a sudovest. I primi sono costruiti in mattoni laterizi, con archeggiature terminali in trachite; gli
archetti semicircolari hanno ghiera intagliata a motivi fitomorfi. La facciata è messa in opera con cantoni
trachitici di media pezzatura. Dal basso verso l’alto, le paraste d’angolo si raccordano mediante lo zoccolo
con scarpa modanata, due sottili cornici di tripartizione in ordini e l’archeggiatura parallela agli spioventi del
frontone. Il portale ha stipiti e architrave tessuti nel paramento murario, con capitelli a filo. Il profilo esterno
dell’arco di scarico è ribattuto (anche lungo il diametro) da cornice a toro. Nell’ordine mediano si apre una
larga finestra ogivale con bifora di risarcimento. Il sopracciglio si prolunga senza soluzione di continuità nella
cornice alla base del frontone. Qui si allungano i sottili piedritti modanati, conclusi da archetti trilobati con
ghiera multipla. (Sardegna Cultura)

(Translated by Google) One of the oldest churches in Iglesienti, built at the end of the thirteenth century shortly after the cathedral of Santa Chiara, it is nevertheless very simple in its decorations and interior furnishings. Adjacent on the left, a Franciscan convent was built centuries ago (#1600), of which some buildings remain on the opposite side, now renovated after various industrial uses, and the well in the center of what was its cloister. On the right, the Cemetery was built at the end of the 19th century, monumental in its oldest part which also contains works by Sartorio.
(Original)
Una delle più antiche chiese Iglesienti, costruita alla fine del Duecento poco dopo la cattedrale di Santa Chiara, risulta comunque molto semplice nei decori e nell'arredo interno. Adiacente sulla sinistra fu edificato secoli fa (#1600) un convento francescano, di cui restano alcuni edifici sul lato opposto ora ristrutturati dopo vari usi industriali, e il pozzo al centro di quello che era il suo chiostro. A destra è stato costruito invece alla fine dell'Ottocento il Cimitero, monumentale nella sua parte più antica che contiene anche opere di Sartorio.

Performing arts theater
Teatro Electra is a beautiful Liberty style theater located in the center of Iglesiente, making it of great historical value. Although the structure may not be entirely comfortable in terms of seating and usability, it has been restored and returned to the community for various cultural events. The theater offers good acoustics and acceptable visibility, although some have noted the lack of air conditioning as a downside.
Magic place
Ana S — Google review
(Translated by Google) Pity, pity, pity! Absurd arrangements (the only worthy seats in the first and second rows in the stalls). A riot of useless wrought iron, even difficult to reach your seat given the small space. Only the memories and the beauty of the square on which the building overlooks remain of the cinema theatre. To be torn down and redone....even reaching the bathrooms is a challenge. I said it all! For me, Electra has remained a place of my heart. But in Iglesias there was another splendid theater: the Olimpia. That too is a memory now. Too bad, too bad, too bad!
(Original)
Peccato peccato peccato! Sistemazioni assurde ( le uniche poltroncine degne prima e seconda fila in platea). Un tripudio di inutile ferro battuto, difficile anche raggiungere il proprio posto visto l'esiguo spazio. Del cine teatro rimangono solo i ricordi e la bellezza della piazza su cui si affaccia lo stabile. Da buttare giù e rifare .... è un' impresa anche raggiungere i bagni. Ho detto tutto! Per me l'Electra è rimasto un luogo del cuore. Ma ad Iglesias c'era un altro splendido teatro: l'Olimpia . Ormai un ricordo pure quello. Peccato, peccato peccato!
(Translated by Google) Beautiful show abridged version of Giuseppe Verdi's La Traviata.
Heated and very nice theater.
The only discordant note is the railing, necessary for safety reasons, which makes it difficult to see the stage. You could have opted for glass or plexiglass.
(Original)
Bellissimo spettacolo versione ridotta del La Traviata di Giuseppe Verdi.
Teatro riscaldato e molto carino.
L'unica nota stonata è la ringhiera, necessaria per motivi di sicurezza, che rende difficoltosa la vista del palco. Si sarebbe potuto optare per vetro o plexiglass.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful historic theater in the historic center of the mining town of Iglesias. Better to reach it on foot by parking outside the Pisanev walls of Iglesias. In the small square in front there are many services and venues. They should also make better use of it for music with more innovative programming.
(Original)
Bellissimo teatro storico in pieno centro storico della città mineraria di iglesias. Meglio raggoungerlo a piedi parcheggiando fuori dalle mure pisanevdi Iglesias. Nella piazzetta antistante molti servizi e locali. Dovrebbero sfruttarlo meglio anche per la musica con una programmazione più innovativa.
(Translated by Google) Structure (former cinema) very interesting from a historical-architectural point of view, renovated and elegantly furnished but of limited usability both due to the modest number of seats and the non-optimal visibility enjoyed by some of them.
Given the location in the heart of the historic center, the possibility of parking nearby (and not only...) is close to zero.
(Original)
Struttura (ex cinema) molto interessante dal punto di vista storico - architettonico, ristrutturata ed elegantemente arredata ma di limitata fruibilità sia per modesto numero di posti, sia per la visibilità non ottimale godibile da una parte di essi.
Data la collocazione nel cuore del centro storico, la possibilità di parcheggio nelle vicinanze (e non solo...) è prossima allo Zero.
(Translated by Google) Very nice and comfortable theatre, a shame it isn't used more frequently but, it is closed for the rest of the year! Let's value it!
(Original)
Teatro molto bello e confortevole, un peccato che non venga utilizzato con più frequenza ma, è chiuso per il resto dell'anno! Valorizziamolo!
(Translated by Google) Beautiful structure even if not entirely comfortable from the point of view of usability and use of the seats. Valuable for the recovery of the old cinema even if it could be used more and used more continuously and assiduously
Good acoustics and acceptable visibility depending on assigned or available seats
(Original)
Bella struttura anche se non del tutto comoda dal punto di vista della fruibilità e dall'utilizzo delle sedute. Pregevole per il recupero del vecchio cinema anche se potrebbe essere usata maggiormente e utilizzata in maniera più continua ed assidua
Acustica buona e visibilità accettabile a seconda dei posti assegnati o disponibili
(Translated by Google) Liberty style theater in the center of Iglesiente, therefore of great historical value. Restored, it was returned to the community relatively recently and is a place where many cultural events of various kinds take place. I would point out the lack of air conditioning as a negative point.
(Original)
Teatro in stile liberty in pieno centro iglesiente, quindi di grande valore storico. Restaurato, è stato restituto alla comunità in tempi relativamente recenti ed è luogo in cui si svolgono parecchie manifestazioni culturali di vario genere. Segnalo come punto negativo la mancanza di climatizzazione.
