Great view. Beautiful area.

A uniquely shaped, towering tower, a natural monument, symbol of Ogliastra, and a key morphological feature of central-eastern Sardinia. Perhaps once a gathering place for the Nuragic peoples, it later became, in popular legend, the entrance to the underworld. It protrudes from the earth like a giant finger reaching toward the sky and, especially in this wild area, is a landmark visible from afar for hikers. Perda 'e Liana is an extraordinary rock formation declared a natural monument in 1993. The peculiar "mountain," known in Sardinian as Taccu or Tonneri, rises in the Gairo Sant'Elena area: it is the greatest witness to the erosive effects of weathering that have been affecting the vast limestone cover of Ogliastra on the border with Barbagia di Seulo for several million years. Erosion gradually isolated the "tower," forming its base. It is the highest (1293 m) of the numerous Ogliastra limestone mountains, the northern foothills of the Tonneri plateau, about two kilometers away, to which it is connected by the s'Arcu 'e su Pirastu Trottu pass. Perhaps in ancient times, they formed a single mountain ridge. Source and further information: https://www.sardegnaturismo.it/de/entdecken/perda-e-liana

Not a Nuraghi, but a wonderfully maintained rest area!

Walking along the coast of Santa Maria Navarrese (Baunei district) you can come across the Spanish Tower, a silent witness to history that has watched over the fate of the inhabitants of the central east coast of Sardinia for over five hundred years

The German-language television series “Treasures of the World – Heritage of Humanity” – which I fully recommend in my opinion – devotes a quarter of an hour to the UNESCO world cultural heritage of the “NURAGHI” in Sardinia and the traditional shepherd’s song there, known as “Canto a Tenore”. The text accompanying the program says “Over seven thousand round towers made of stone pieces weighing tons are scattered all over Sardinia. Often only the stumps of these megalithic buildings, called nuraghi, remain. The first were around 1400 BC. Built. Small stones were placed between the mighty blocks, a construction method that made the stone towers collapse-proof.” This article (episode 413 of the series) is available in the ARD media library under the following link: https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/sardinien/3sat/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS8xNTg4MzM5MA

The Spanish tower of Santa Maria Navarrese is a clear testimony to the problem of Saracen pirate incursions, which often hit the coastal area between Villaputzu and Arbatax. The tower was built around 1591, when as many as 40 towers existed along the Sardinian coast (today there are just over 100). The tower is in direct visual connection with that of Arbatax, a logistical solution that allowed the service garrisons in the two buildings to control the entire gulf. From here the view of the gulf is beautiful.

...spread over three levels. On the ground floor, a door gives access to a large hall, while the first and second floors can be reached via an external staircase that ends in front of the first floor entrance door. A narrow ladder on the wall leads to the second floor; Another staircase leads to the terrace. In the 1960s the tower was used as an office and was used by the financial police for a long time. Since the 1980s, the tower has again been under the control of the municipality of Baunei, thanks in part to a kind of popular uprising. Source: turismobaunei.eu automatically translated

...there were about forty towers. The tower was built on the small promontory that separates the central beach from that of San Giovanni and is in direct visual connection with that of Arbatax. A logistical solution that allowed the garrisons on duty in the two buildings to control the entire Gulf. According to documents from the Royal Administration of the Towers, these two were among those armed with cannons. The soldiers on duty at the coastal towers were required to be on alert day and night, as stipulated in a “Balance of the Management of the Towers” dated January 29, 1798, which recommended that the terrace be kept operational at all times. small wood to be able to carry out in the event of a sighting, In 1833, Angius found the tower of S.
