Discover Aritzo, a charming town in the province of Nuoro, located in the ancient region of Barbagia di Belvì.
The Aritzo valley is a stunning gem of Sardinia, surrounded by lush mountains filled with walnut, hazelnut, and chestnut trees.
This area has evidence of human presence dating back to the Neolithic period, with a giant’s tomb and some domus de janas.
Aritzo, nestled among the mountains, is a small treasure with stone houses and sloping roofs to shield from winter snowfalls.
In the main street of the town, you can admire the 16th-century parish church of San Michele Arcangelo. Other notable churches include Sant’Antonio di Padova and Santa Maria della Neve.
For history enthusiasts, a visit to the 17th-century Aragonese prisons known as “The Eagle’s Nest” is definitely worthwhile.
