    At the top of the beautiful building you have a great view of Cagliari.

      The building is a real highlight. From here you can see the old town all the way to the sea. It is particularly beautiful here at sunset 🌅

        The bastion rises on the foundations of the medieval city and bears the name of the first Piedmontese viceroy, the Baron of Saint-Remy. When you stand in front of this impressive classical building, you will immediately notice the harmonious interplay of white and yellow limestone columns, crowned by finely crafted Corinthian capitals. Designed by architects Giuseppe Costa and Fulgenzio Setti, the majestic Umberto I terrace offers breathtaking views over the city and is a witness to an architecture that was formally inaugurated in 1902.

        The bastion has undergone many changes over the years: the double staircase and the triumphal arch, once proud symbols of the building, were damaged by bombs from World War II in 1943. But with the same precision and care with which they were once built, these parts have been restored to their former glory. The covered promenade that stretches behind the arch tells its own stories: once a place for celebratory banquets, later an infirmary during the wars and a refuge for those who had lost everything. And in 1948 the first edition of the Sardinia International Fair was held here.
