Attraction Features
Nuraghen sind antike Megalithbauten, die nur auf Sardinien vorkommen und aus der Bronzezeit stammen (ca. 1900-730 v. Chr.). Ihre genaue Funktion ist noch Gegenstand der Forschung, aber sie dienten vermutlich als Wohnstätten, Verteidigungsanlagen oder Kultstätten. 'Nuraghe Co'e Serra' ist eine dieser prähistorischen Strukturen, deren genaue Geschichte und Bedeutung spezifisch für diesen Ort jedoch nicht detailliert dokumentiert sind.
Opening hours
The nuraghe is freely accessible.
