On the ruins of what were once Roman baths, traces of which can still be seen, a church now stands.

Small agricultural and pastoral center in the Iglesiente area, located near Domusnovas.

A pleasant, scenic walk along the harbor and the calm waters of the lagoon. From here, you can admire the sunset over the gulf, watch the fishing boats return, or simply enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of the seaside village.

Musei is a small town of about 1,500 inhabitants, nestled in a lush, fertile valley and thus deeply rooted in the agricultural and pastoral traditions of the Iglesiente area. Its ancient history is evidenced by cultural traditions, ancient religious buildings, and archaeological remains. The town offers a variety of dining and accommodation options.

According to legend, the Acquafredda Castle was built by the Gherardesca family, Counts of Donoratico, when they acquired southeastern Sardinia. In fact, in 1257, the fortress came into the possession of Ugolino of Donoratico, lord of the Cagliarani territory, immortalized by Dante in Canto 23 of the Inferno. However, the castle is older, as it is already mentioned in a papal bull of 1215. After Ugolino's death (1288), it passed into the possession of Pisa, then to the Aragonese (1324), and subsequently to several feudal lords until it was redeemed by Victor Amadeus III (1785). From the top of a mountain, the castle dominates the territory of Siliqua, four kilometers away. Climbing its slopes, the view sweeps from the green valley of the Cixerri to Cagliari, from the Marmilla to the Iglesias area. At dawn and dusk, their shadows extend across the valley.

Iglesiente, the region at the center of the Sardinian mining epic and of which it is the capital, derives its name. It has a population of 27,000 and is the episcopal see and heir to the ancient diocese of Sulcis. Iglesias means "churches" in Spanish. It is no coincidence that in a city with a glorious past, especially under Catalan-Aragonese rule (when it was a royal city), the celebrations surrounding the Good Friday customs stand out, recalling Spanish customs in form and color. The mystery processions on Holy Tuesday and Holy Friday are particularly impressive. Among the churches, the Cathedral of Santa Chiara (dating back to the 13th century), the churches of Madonna delle Grazie, Del Collegio, a Jesuit temple, and San Francesco, one of Sardinia's best-preserved and most important buildings in the Gothic-Catalan style, which houses an altarpiece dating back to 1560, are particularly worth seeing.

I recommend the Sant Antioco-Calasetta trek, walking all along the coast and passing through Cussorgia, 24 km round trip, an experience not to be missed!!

Newly built (06/2025), the facade that looks directly onto the street looks more like a Pokemon (Moltres) than a hawk or any other bird it should represent!
