BRIEF HISTORICAL SUMMARY VISIT ROUTE IN BRIEF NOT TO BE MISSED
The original nucleus of the current structure dates back to 1738, the year in which the military barracks dedicated to San Carlo was founded and which became the headquarters of the military corps of the "Dragoni di Sardegna".
The evocative tour itinerary leads to the discovery of the three floors and their individual peculiarities: from the ground floor, which coincides with the entrance to the building, up to the basement of the "Cannoniera" and the even deeper one renamed piano delle Segrete.
The large terrace of the cultural center offers one of the largest panoramas of the city of Cagliari and is therefore an unmissable stop when visiting the site.
