Buy a ticket here and have all the others included for a few € extra. This is the largest, best presented and interesting in the museum complex. Plenty of the main boards now have English translations they give pointers to anyone who is intending to visit a particular site on the island and or interested in a historical period. Yes... More

Nice and modern museum that gives you an excellent overview all the stuff and art that is found throughout Sardinia. Highlights are a collection of bronze figures (of the Bronze age of course). More

The interior though is still a bit of the '70's/'80's, the way the exhibition is presented to the public. There's some room for enhancement there. Nontheless, the collection is unique, as Sardinia is.... More
