Montevecchio, also known as Gennas Serapis, is an ancient mining village now a hamlet of Guspini, nestled in the Geo-Mining Historical and Environmental Park of Sardinia. Founded in the 19th century as the administrative center of the lead and zinc mines, it was established here. The village is home to the Montevecchio Mine information point and the Gennas Food and Wine Confraternity, a trattoria offering excellent food in a friendly, family-friendly atmosphere. They are usually open on weekends, but we recommend contacting them to check opening times, make reservations, and arrange for service. The owner is very helpful and is happy to welcome hungry travelers.

Until the mid-19th century, Montevecchio didn't even have a name. With the development of the mine by the Sanna-Castoldi family, a cluster of buildings serving the mining industry arose: homes for employees and managers, offices, schools, as well as recreational facilities and sports facilities, as well as a hospital. Even today, not a single structure in the village exists that wasn't built for the mine and its workers. Today, Montevecchio still has a few hundred inhabitants, and walking its streets, you can appreciate the urban and architectural evolution of the village, developed over 150 years of mining activity. TO VISIT THE MINE, this is the official website: https://www.minieradimontevecchio.it/

The Montevecchio mine is an impressive example of how a place devoted to the consumption of natural resources can be abandoned and used for other purposes. Zinc, lead and silver were once extracted here, but today it is a tourist site devoted to art and culture.

Once past the mine, a few bends further you reach Montevecchio. The town housed the apartments of the mine managers and the highest officials who ran the mine, as well as accommodation for workers, barracks, hospital and schools, a post office, a chemical laboratory, and even a football pitch for the local team. Today inhabited by a few hundred people, most of the time you will struggle to find even a handful of them. The sound of the wind will be your only travel companion.

Sa Dome and s'Orku, one of the best preserved giants' tombs on the island

Tamba dei Giganti really beautiful and impressive, a pity that part of the arch on the sides of the entrance is missing

Not complete, but the main stone is very beautiful

There are about 800 Giants' Tombs in Sardinia. The one inside the archaeological site of the Giara di Siddi is one of the best preserved Nuragic funerary monuments.
