Things to do in Sardara
La casa del Balilla

In the heart of the village, at the crossroads of Via Oristano and Via Manno, stands an architectural gem that tells the story of the 20th century: the Former Casa del Balilla. Designed in 1937 by the famous architect Salvatore Rattu from Cagliari, this building is a splendid example of Rationalist architecture applied to Sardinia’s historic centers.
Strolling along its perimeter, your gaze is captured by its sharp geometric lines, square volumes, and the striking arched portico adorning its facade. Originally born as a youth education center of the era, today the building stands out as an important cultural heritage asset protected by the State. An unmissable stop for history and architecture lovers who want to discover the geometric and linear charm of Italian Rationalism, just a few steps from the town’s famous thermal baths.
