Attractions
The Palazzo Zapata, which was built by the Aragonese Zapata family at the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th century, is important. During restoration work in the 1990s, it was discovered that the palace had been built on the ruins of a nuragic complex ( Nuraxi 'e Cresia ). Today there is a museum in the palazzo; The remains of the nuraghi are visible above glass floors and bridges. Also worth seeing are the reredos by an unknown master who probably came from the Stampace school , the polychrome predella in the sacristy of the parish church "Vergine Immacolata" and the church of San Giovanni Batista from the 13th century.
To the west of the village on a hill on the road to Tuili is the well-preserved five-phase built and converted large nuraghe Su Nuraxi , which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site .
