The archaeological complex of Santa Cristina dates from the 12 century BC and consists of a well and various ceremonial buildings. It is one of the most important sites of the Nuragic civilization. Central to the facilities is a well, built with well smoothed basaltic ashlars and consisting of three architectural elements: an elliptical enclosure, stairs shaped like a trapezium and a circular chamber with an ogival ceiling that contains the water. In front of the well there are remains of Nuragic villager huts with and a gathering place.[3]
Other sights include numerous nuraghe and domus de janas, and the Aragonese-Gothic-style church of San Teodoro.
