Nuraghe Seruci

The nuraghe Seruci is an important archaeological site, located in the municipality of Gonnesa, in the Iglesiente region of Sardinia.

From the nuraghe, being located in a hill of strategic importance near the sea, is possible to observe the entire surrounding area.

The nuraghe is surrounded by a village, one of the largest in Sardinia, with about a hundred and fifty huts grouped in "residential areas" divided by narrow streets.

The settlements covers 7 hectares, the huts are circular and in some of them is possible to see the use of architectural solutions that are rarely found in the other nuraghic villages; for example the use of partition walls inside of the huts and the addition of other environments of varying shape around the usual living environment.

Near the village and the nuraghe are also present at least three giants' tomb, the typical burials of nuragic Sardinia.
