Santu Antine (in Torralba) is one of the largest nuraghe (ancient megalithic edifice) in Sardinia. The main structure was built around the 19-18th century BC, and the other parts of the nuraghe date back to the 17-15th century BC. The main tower originally reached a height of 23-24 metres.
Near the Nuraghe lie the remains of a Nuragic village.
