Setting

The municipality is located at an altitude of 320 meters above sea level, in the historical region of Marmilla, famous for the presence of the highland of the Giara that dominates it and for having given birth to the blessed Capuchin Brother Nicholas. The territory of Gesturi is mainly hilly. Set at the foot of the Giara plateau, the fame of the area is mainly linked to its wild and uncontaminated beauty, inhabited by very rare animals. The area is in fact frequented by the only herd existing in Italy and in Europe of wild horses better known as "Giara horses". Of small dimensions, their origin is shrouded in mystery, particular that enhances the charm of these robust and peaceful animals. Besides the churches, the territory of Gesturi is characterized by the presence of numerous nuraghic sites. In fact, the quantity of pre-nuragic testimonies (menhir, domus de janas), nuragiche like the nuraghe and the giants' tombs, and the Punic-Roman ones present on the territory is impressive.

Activities and attractions

TERRITORY AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE
Not to be missed is the proximity to Barumini (4 Km), famous all over the world for the "Su Nuraxi" nuragic complex declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Also in Barumini there is "Casa Zapata" a wonderful and complex residence erected by the aragonese aragonese family of the Zapata family from the end of the 16th century. In the nineties of the last century, during renovations of the palace it was discovered that the Zapata palace was built over the well-preserved remains of a Nuraghic settlement. It is fascinating and difficult to describe the emotion of being able to walk on the crystal floors of the ancient residence of the Zapata and see the ruins of the nuraghe below.
