Torre dell'Elefante

Torre dell'Elefante is one of Cagliari’s most important medieval landmarks, built in 1307 as part of the city’s defensive walls. Rising above the historic Castello district, it is known for its sturdy limestone structure, panoramic views, and the small elephant sculpture that gives the tower its name. A visit offers both architectural interest and a clear sense of Cagliari’s past, making it a worthwhile stop for travelers exploring the old town.
