LOCATION: Middle Sardinia

Lake Omodeo is the biggest  lake in Sardinia. It was created between 1919 and 1924, by means of a barrage on the river Tirso, in the gorge of Santa Chiara di Ula. At the end of the nineties the old dam was replaced with a more modern one, increasing the capacity of the reservoir and causing the - for now - incomplete flooding of the old dam.
At the time of the construction of the first dam, the whole village of Zuri was literally moved a few kilometres away. Stone by stone, house by house, the whole built-up area had to change its location, including the old Romanesque church of San Pietro.
The area around the Omodeo is ideal for every kind of excursion, since it's perfectly located for visiting many archaeological sites.
