Pitzu Cummu Nuraghe submitted by SolarMegalith : Remains of Nuraghe Pitzu Cummu - view from the South (photo taken on September 2010). (Vote or comment on this photo)
Ruins of this Bronze Age nuraghe are located on the top of a hill West of Lunamatrona. The plan of the nuraghe with the main tower and at least five lateral towers is distinguishable, although only lower parts of the walls survived till nowdays.

To visit Nuraghe Pitzu Cummu you can follow the road from Villanovaforru and turn right just before Nuraghe Trobas, or reach it from Lunamatrona - the hill with the nuraghe is located West of Parco Sa Turritta.
