In the heart of Carbonia, the Great Serbariu Mine preserves the memory of the era when coal fueled the Sulcis economy. Active from 1937 to 1964, it is now a museum that chronicles the lives of miners and the evolution of extraction techniques through original spaces, vintage machinery, and a fascinating underground tunnel open to visitors. Find all the latest information about the museum, including opening hours and tickets, on the website: https://www.museodelcarbone.it/.

Founded in 1938 during the fascist mining era, Carbonia is one of Sardinia's youngest cities and owes its name to the coal from the Sulcis basin. Today, it preserves an interesting heritage of industrial archaeology, such as the Grande Miniera di Serbariu (Great Mine of Serbariu), transformed into a museum and cultural center with visitable galleries and exhibition spaces dedicated to the miners' lives. The town center, designed according to the rationalist principles of the time, also offers a lively cultural scene with theaters, exhibitions, and festivals dedicated to the memory of mining.

The former Cortoghiana mine was founded in 1889, following the discovery of an important deposit of fossil coal on site. The deposit was only partially exploited due to the presence of aquifers and the high costs of extraction and transportation.

Beautiful panoramic point along the dirt road that connects Cortoghiana to Nuraxi Figus. At this point the road reaches the top of a hill, thus gaining a privileged position to observe the surrounding territory, characterized by small barren hills, Mediterranean scrub shrubs and olive trees.

Bridge built in 2022 for pilgrims on the Santa Barbara Mining Trail to cross.
