The space, housed on the second floor of the Palazzo Baroniale di Sorso, is the first museum in Italy dedicated to the theme of depopulation and the abandonment of residential areas, a red thread in the history of Sardinia and many other Mediterranean regions. History and archaeology are unique at the national level through interactive tools to promote knowledge and fix the experiential memory of what has been seen, experienced and learned in this museum space.
Visitors, who will be accompanied by the expert guides of the Sardinian Cooperative of Medieval Archaeology, will have the opportunity to travel back in time to discover the characteristic processes of the depopulation of the island from contemporary times to the Middle Ages, through the narration of the abandoned medieval village of Geridu, the only one in Sardinia to have been excavated in extension. A museum room is dedicated to Geridu, where the main results of the research carried out to date in this village are illustrated, through reconstructions and activities that allow the visitor to see and appreciate directly the results of more than 20 years of study.
Why it's important to visit it
The museum is worth a visit because it invites us to reflect on an increasingly current topic in the world and specifically in Sardinia.
The visitor, immersed in reconstructions, images, sounds and keywords, is accompanied, through a journey back in time, in a unique experience that aims to think about the phenomenon of depopulation, identifying the same problems from the Middle Ages to the contemporary age.
