The territory was already inhabited in the pre-Nuragic era, as evidenced by some domus de janas and tombs of the giants. The most important prehistoric monument of the Baronies dates back to the Bronze Age, the <strong><em>nuraghe San Pietro<\/em><\/strong>, not far from the homonymous nuragic village where various and interesting archaeological finds have been found. In the territory there is also a part of the regional <strong>natural park<\/strong> of Tepilora, Sant&#8217;Anna and Rio Posada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Su Vrau Farmhouse<\/strong> is located in unspoiled nature, in the locality of the same name, on the SS road 131 Diramazione Centrale Nuorese, between Torp\u00e8 and Posada, and offers <strong>seafood cuisine<\/strong> characterized by typical Sardinian dishes.

The town, separated from the sea by Monte Tuttavista, 806 meters high, is the setting for the novel <em>Canne al vento <\/em>by Grazia Deledda, after which the municipality has named a literary park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Cantine Mastio Hofmann<\/strong>, in via Oristano, were born in the seventies, when grandfather Michele planted the first Cannonau vineyards, to which those of Vermentino and Montepulciano were added over time. You can book a<strong> tasting tour<\/strong> to discover the wines, which are paired with Sardinian <strong>gastronomic specialities<\/strong>.
