Tresnuraghes ( German : Three Nuraghes ) on the SS 292, is a municipality in Sardinia not far from Bosa , on the Planargia plateau above the city in the province of Oristano . It was founded in the Middle Ages by coastal residents who settled into the hinterland because of the Saracen raids. 1097 inhabitants live in an area of 31.5 km² (as of December 31, 2019).
The neighboring municipalities are: Flussio , Magomadas and Sennariolo .
The old city, which is expanding into the surrounding area, is already growing together with the neighboring Magomadas. It is the location of a cathedral that stands out for its colorful tile roof, which contrasts with the gray facades of the city center. From Tresnuraghes and Magomadas you can reach the bathing bays of Marina di Magomadas and Porto Alabe.
