Nuraghe Loelle

Highlight • Historical Site

The Nuraghe Loelle, hidden among cork oaks and holm oaks, gradually reveals its fascinating and mysterious characteristics, perched on a granite outcrop, the main rock of the region, and dominating the plateau and the houses of Buddusò.

Its structure consists of a central tower leaning on a trefoil bastion and is considered a “mixed” type as it has features of both a “corridor” and a tholos nuraghe. In fact, it is believed to be a protonuraghe, rebuilt in later phases to meet new architectural and cultural needs. All around you will notice the traces of the hut village with a circular floor plan. Upon entering, you will be surprised that the entrance does not open onto a courtyard or a corridor leading to a central room, as was common in these Bronze Age buildings. In the Loelle, however, a staircase leads clockwise around the tower and directly to the second level. Here begins another corridor, which, if you walk all the way through it, leads to the "ground floor", while about halfway there is another ramp that leads to the third level, where the final and main room opens. Before you enter the room, you will notice an apse-shaped niche on the right.

In front of the keep, a bastion crossed by corridors was built with circular walls that have a concave-convex line. Outside the bastion, on the east side, there is another special feature of the Loelle: by exploiting a natural gorge, a separate room was created with a tholos vault that opens about one meter below the surface of the earth.
