Nuraghen sind antike Steintürme, die nur auf Sardinien zu finden sind und die Nuraghenkultur prägten. Sie stammen hauptsächlich aus der Bronzezeit (ca. 1800-800 v. Chr.) und dienten vermutlich als Wohnstätten, Befestigungen, Kultstätten oder astronomische Observatorien. Viele Nuraghen sind heute Ruinen, ihre genaue Funktion ist oft noch Gegenstand der Forschung.
