About

About the area

A treasure chest of traditions and knowledge. Nuoro is authenticity in purity. Sardinian Athens, the most cultured and combative country, custodian of the culture that embodies the Sardinian spirit. The square dedicated to the poet Sebastiano Satta, the large plaster casts in balance between realism and symbolism by Francesco Ciusa, the sculptures with local traditional materials by Costantino Nivola, the MAN museum dedicated to contemporary art and the Deleddian one in the Sardinian writer's birthplace. Three floors of writings and personal objects that tell the story of Grazia Deledda before her fame and after her consecration with the Nobel Prize for Literature. And then the history of customs and artisanal manufacturing collected in the Regional Ethnographic Museum and the evidence of ancient origins in the archaeological site of Tanca Manna. At the top of the city, guardian of purity and pain, Mount Ortobene with the statue of Christ the Redeemer. Around a still wild land of forests and legends that extends at the foot of Mount Gennargentu, stone paths and villages nestled where an ancient dimension of life survives. This is demonstrated by the procession of the "Mamuthones", who dance to the sound of bells and bells tied to their bodies. Their masked faces convey the mystery of the first inhabitants of the island, the Nuragic people. It is still possible to follow the shepherds' paths and encounter perfectly preserved nuraghe and Domus de Janas dug into the stone over three thousand years ago. The genuineness of a territory where you can meet artisans who know how to transplant their ancient knowledge onto filigree jewels, carpets, tapestries and products with unique aromas and flavors such as olive oil, the powerful Cannonau wine and cheeses from the Barbagia pastures. A journey to taste the soul of true Sardinia.
