Fodor's Expert Review Torre di San Pancrazio

Cagliari

Editor's Note: This property is currently undergoing renovations.

Marking the edge of the Castello district, the 1305 tower of the imposing medieval Pisan defenses is just outside Cagliari's archaeological museum. You can climb up the limestone tower for a fabulous panorama of the city and its surroundings. As with other defensive structures of this period, the tower's back wall is missing, which allows you to see the series of wooden stairs and landings inside the cross section without climbing a step.
