Museo del Sughero / Cork Museum, Calangianus How is it possible that Calangianus, a remote town in the Gallura hinterland, was included in the last century among the 100 most industrialized municipalities in Italy? The answer is very simple: cork. The process, which officially began in 1851, soon made Calangianus a fortune: in a short time, workshops were built that employed hundreds of people from the surrounding villages. Finally, this resource, which had always been so widespread in the region, was exploited on a large scale. In fact, in 1906, cork was successfully presented at the International Exhibition in Milan. The first edition of the Cork Fair dates back to 1978. Text / Source: Ministro del Turismo Republica Italiana https://www.italia.it/it/sardegna/museo-del-sughero

La Maddalena (The island was inhabited in prehistoric times) The island was inhabited in prehistoric times, but was abandoned after the fall of the Western Roman Empire until the 17th century, when a colony of shepherds settled here and founded the current municipality. Its strategically favourable location with the unavoidable passage through the Bocche di Bonifacio made the island a military outpost, as evidenced by the fortifications that can still be visited today. This was also an attraction for Napoleon Bonaparte, who was repelled in 1793 by the fleet commander Domenico Millelire, who was born here. For a long time the island was a base for the Italian and US Navy, which was finally disbanded in early 2008. The US submarines were stationed off Santo Stefano, the fourth largest island in the archipelago. Today La Maddalena is the seat of a non-commissioned officer school and the naval department. The only small town in the archipelago has over 11,000 inhabitants. Its harbor overlooks the town of Palau, which is a 15-minute ferry ride away. The cobbled streets of the old town are lined with palaces from the late 18th century and the parish church of Santa Maria Maddalena stands above it. The sacristy of this church houses the Diocesan Museum of Sacred Art, which exhibits the treasure of the patron saint. This includes the crucifix and two silver candlesticks that Admiral Nelson gave in 1804. It is a historical memorial of the city. In the small harbor of Cala Gavetta stands the statue of Giuseppe Garibaldi, who spent the last 26 years of his life on the island of Caprera, which is connected to La Maddalena by the 600 m long artificial strip of land known as Passo della Moneta. The second largest island in the archipelago was the "garden" of the hero of the two worlds, which is now famous for the Garibaldino Compendium, the most visited museum in Sardinia. The pristine green land is surrounded by beautiful bays, each one more beautiful than the next: Coticcio, the Tahiti of Sardinia, Cala dei Due Mari and Spiaggia del Relitto are particularly noteworthy. In Stagnali, a military base in the interwar period and now a center for environmental education, there is the Museo geomineralogico naturalistico, where rocks and rare minerals such as huge quartz crystals, beach sand and fossils can be seen.

La Maddalena (granite and poplar formations over 45 km) The archipelago itself and the nature park are named after the only inhabited place on the largest island, a true paradise with countless scenic and historical-cultural treasures in the north-east of Sardinia: it is a dream destination for tourists from all over the world. A 45 km long panoramic road runs around the island and offers truly breathtaking views: granite and poplar formations border rugged sections, lonely gulfs, quiet bays, brilliant white beaches and turquoise blue sea as well as gentle hills that stretch into the hinterland. La Maddalena is the big sister of around 60 larger and smaller islands that form the largest archipelago in Gallura and Sardinia. In 1994 this area was declared a national park and is an untouched natural wonder in the heart of the Mediterranean. The island is the ideal destination for holidays in harmony with the treasures of nature: just 3 km from the residential area, paths through Mediterranean scrub lead to the fjord of Cala Francese, famous above all for the quarry of high-quality granite that has been a source of wealth for centuries. To the south, along the promenade of Padule, near a military fortress, stretches the Nido d'Aquila. Not far from there is Punta Tegge, another paradise of sand and polished rocks. To the north, bays with the finest white sand dunes amid rocks shaped by time: Cala Lunga, Monti d'Arena and Bassa Trinita, a beach dominated by a small church built in the 18th century, which is a place of deep devotion. To the east, you will be enchanted by the charming little bay of Spalmatore: cream-colored sand, bordered by Mediterranean scrub and impressive pink rocks.
