Ghetto degli Ebrei
Cagliari
The Centro Comunale d'Arte e Cultura "Il Ghetto" in Cagliari is a historic building near the Bastion of Santa Croce, now a vibrant art and culture center.
Location
The building known as "Il Ghetto" in Cagliari is a remarkable historical monument that, contrary to its name, was not the Jewish ghetto. It actually served military purposes, housing the "Dragoni" until the 19th century. Located near the Bastion of Santa Croce, it overlooks the rooftops of the old city and offers visitors a fascinating blend of history and culture.
Today, the Centro Comunale d'Arte functions as a versatile space for art and culture. It hosts exhibitions, performances, and cultural events, serving as an important meeting point for art lovers and tourists alike. The architectural beauty of the building and its strategic location make it a highlight of any visit to Cagliari.
Particularly charming is the panoramic terrace, which offers breathtaking views over the city's rooftops. This makes "Il Ghetto" not just a place of art, but also a vantage point that makes Cagliari's rich history tangible and invites visitors to linger.
