Why you should visit it
While Cagliari offers many resources to narrate its history to its most inquisitive visitors, the cemetery of Bonaria has it all in one place. Its sculptures, commissioned by Sardinian aristocracy and bourgeoisie, witness the individual stories of thousands of Sardinians, as well as the development of art in Sardinia throughout the last centuries.
