Information about CAGLIARI At the beginning of its history Cagliari was a Carthaginian colony flourished then under the Roman rule. Destroyed by the Saracens, it raised again under the Republic of Pisa. In 1326 it was conquered by the Catalans, who during their domination gave it the features of a Spanish town. In 1718 Sardinia was annexed to the Reign of Savoy and since then on Cagliari followed the destiny of the island. In 1862, when Cagliari was no longer a stronghold, its fortifications were destroyed and the development of the modern town began. The city of Cagliari is the result of thousands of years of history. The history of many civilizations that have left their mark all over the city. Cagliari offers museums and monuments, architecture and archaeological wonders which the different cultures that passed through or occupied Cagliari have left behind. Cagliari covers seven hills and besides its crystal-clear sea water and one of the most beautiful and longest beaches in the Mediterranean, offers an unspoiled natural environment consisting of lagoons, bird sanctuaries and wildlife reserves which are unique in Europe.
