Orgosolo: The Murals and Monte Novo San Giovanni
325 + 100 XP
Orgosolo has carried painted murals on its walls since 1969, more than a hundred and fifty of them, most of them political and spanning decades of argument. The village sits at the edge of the Supramonte under Monte Novo San Giovanni, in the Barbagia, which is also the home ground of cantu a tenore, the four-part singing on UNESCO’s intangible heritage list since 2005.
