Nuraghe San Pietro is a large complex structure located NW of Torpe. It consists of partly preserved main tower with incomplete tholos chamber and intra-mural staircase, courtyard (with a well) and four lateral towers. The nuraghe was probably built in at least two phases. The site was extensively excavated, among the most significant finds there is the Late Bronze Age clay figurine.
