Domusnovas

Cradle of ancient and underground beauty

Domusnovas, with its roots sinking into the mining past of the island, is a place rich in history and tradition and is dotted with mines. This fascinating municipality is located in Iglesiente and is famous for its ancient caves and cultural heritage.

Among the points of interest, the Cave of San Giovanni stands out, a natural wonder that represents an important geological testimony with its karst phenomenon: a passable road of 860 meters traverses it, making it a unique place in Italy.

The Cave of San Giovanni is just one of the many examples of the municipality’s riches and is also a destination for enthusiasts of speleology and sport climbing.

The medieval Church of Santa Barbara and sa Domu e s’orku, a testimony of the Nuragic age, are other cultural gems that deserve to be visited.
