Nuxis is a small village inhabited since prehistoric times and rich in cultural layers. Among its attractions are the Church of San Pietro, built in 1853, and the Byzantine country church of Sant’Elia di Tattinu. The town of Nuxis is characterized by a vibrant use of mural art: several contemporary murals decorate walls and facades, depicting scenes from local life, portraits of residents, and moments of collective memory. The village has several accommodations, as well as markets and restaurants where you can refresh yourself and stock up on supplies.

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.
