Cagliari Underground Tour
Activity Details
We’ll meet on Via Sant'Ignazio da Laconi to begin our tour of Cagliari's underground. Beneath the present-day city lies a hidden network of quarries, cisterns, crypts, and tunnels, carved from the same limestone rock on which Cagliari stands. These subterranean passages, once inaccessible, have been carefully restored and are now open to explore!
Our first stop is the Galleria Rifugio dell'Istituto dei Salesiani, a 120-meter (393 feet) tunnel that once served as a refuge during the bombings of 1943. The tunnel, now lit by soft candlelight, offers a truly magical atmosphere as we delve into its history.
Continuing on foot through the historic Stampace and Marina neighborhoods, we’ll reach the Crypt of Santa Restituta, a natural cave filled with local legends of the city.
Our next stop is in the Marina district at the Museum of the Treasury and Archaeological Area of Sant'Eulalia. Spanning 900 square meters (9,687 sq ft) beneath the church of Sant'Eulalia, this archaeological site reveals ruins from various historical periods, offering a unique glimpse into the city’s past.
After 2 hours of exploring, we’ll conclude our journey through Cagliari’s hidden underground.
