Water towers between Oristano and Cabras In the region between Oristano and Cabras on Sardinia you come across striking, mushroom-shaped towers that are up to 20 meters high. They seem mysterious at first, but they have a very practical function: they are modern water towers. Contrary to what many people believe, water towers are not used to store large quantities of water, but rather to maintain a constant water pressure in the pipe network. This also applies, for example, to the column-like tower at Stagno Sale 'e Porcus, which regulates the pressure in the network. In many Italian regions you can see similar structures, which are often underestimated due to their shape. Despite the striking design, the real benefit lies in the technical background - the increase in pressure ensures that water is evenly distributed and reaches all households.

The archaeological area of Tharros represents one of the most precious testimonies of ancient Sardinian history. Among the necropolises and Nuragic, Phoenician and Punic remains, the tower of San Giovanni stands out. This coastal tower, built between the 16th and 17th centuries, was built to defend the coast from the incursions of pirates and Barbary corsairs.

Tharros (also Tharras, Tarrae or Tarras) is an ancient city on the west coast of Sardinia, of which only remains remain. It is located 20 km west of Oristano in the province of the same name, on the southern tip of the Sinis peninsula, which is only 100 m wide in places. The name Tharros first appeared on a Roman milestone. Founded by Nuragics, the place was expanded into a city by the Phoenicians and taken over by the Carthaginians and Romans. Between 827 and 1070 AD it was the capital of the Judicate of Arborea. Ibn Jubar (1145–1217) reported as early as 1183 that he had seen a ruined city when his ship sought shelter from a storm on the Sardinian promontory.
