The town of wheat and breadThe town of Sanluri, whose territory stretches between Campidano and Marmilla, is situated halfway between Cagliari and Oristano. Due to its position it has always played a strategic role for communications, especially at a political and military level. Of considerable importance in this area are both the well-preserved castle of the Marquises of Villasanta and, from a culinary point of view, the typical "cifraxiu" bread which is even highly rated on the other side of the Atlantic.
