Villanovaforru

The historic centre is of certain interest for the visitor, rich with characteristic houses, built according to the agricultural tradition of the Medio Campidano area. In the same square as the Archaeological Museum, temporary exhibitions are held in the two traditional houses, which have been restructured by the Commune. In the surrounding area, the Nuraghic complex of 'Genna Maria' rises, well-signposted on the road towards Collinas. The Nuraghe was only brought to light in 1977 and stands in a dominating position on the top of a hill. It is a tri-lobated structure, with a central tower, surrounded by three huge towers joined together by a thick wall that encloses a courtyard with a 'tholos' well. Another defence wall with six corner towers stands on the outside of the village area. Src: http://www.sardegnaturismo.it/offerta/cultura/cittaepaesi/paesi/villanovaforru.html
