The Nuraghe is best known for the unusual design of the main tower, which contains a single room "Tholos" is divided into three areas to be supported by wooden floors and cut away holes in the walls.
It is part of a broader settlement that includes a barbican equipped with towers, a sacred area - with "temenos and temple" megaron "- and, all around, a large town.
The monument consists of a main tower which leans against a bastion bilobed at two levels containing two secondary towers and a courtyard.
the main tower circular (diameter 16.15 m, alt. 11.40 m) is accessed through the large window on the first floor reached by climbing the ramparts of the walls and filling the courtyard.
Opening, Keystone (width 0.80 m, alt. m 2) with window and exhaust, it is decentralized to S. The window lights up the corridor behind splayed lintels in mid development is intersected by a spiral staircase leading to the floors above. The path of the wiring compartment is lighted by loopholes and small shelves to hold the lamps. Another special feature of the scale is represented by the presence of a niche-closet.
The room on the first floor - centric, not perfectly circular (diameter 3.75 to 4.30 m) and apparently no spaces subsidiary - is now almost completely filled with rocks and earth.
The cover system environment consists of a cut away (Depth 25-50 cm), six holes on which they are addressed, similar in shape and size.
along the spiral staircase you reach the passage that introduces into the second floor, elliptical (diameter from 5 to 4.50 m, alt. M 3.30) and largely excelled.
the bastion (25 x 12.5 m; alt. M 6) was accessed through two entrances arranged respectively in the SE and NE curtains.
The main entrance, built in the middle of the curtain SE, sneaks into a hallway with hatch-grating and niche that leads to a narrow passage now inaccessible.
The second entrance to the bastion, opened on the NE side, leads into an hour long corridor blocked by the collapse, complete with hatch-grating and niche. Very little is
can read the secondary tower. Best preserved and, conversely, the other tower, whose entrance was originally open on the SE wall of the courtyard. Of this part of the added part is detected in the rooms of the two levels almost completely filled with collapse. Although these rooms were separated by a floor resting on a cut away and in three large square openings functional incorporation of support beams.
The room upstairs could be achieved through a short corridor on the straight open N. Getting
From the train station of Torralba (accessible from the SS 131 - Torralba junction at km 173.2), you are walking alongside the railway line for about 700 meters, until you reach the Nuraghe is visible from afar.
