Parco Museo "S'abba frisca"

Near Dorgali, Parco Museo S’Abba Frisca combines an open-air museum with a shaded park and farm animals. Guided tours, including tours in English, trace Sardinian rural life before mechanisation through family belongings, farming tools and old workshops. Look inside the farmhouse and blacksmith’s shop, then walk among donkeys, horses, rabbits and birds. A small bar serves drinks and snacks, including local food and homemade lemonade. It’s a family-friendly stop for learning about the island’s farming traditions away from the beach.

A family farm and its history

The museum presents Sardinian life before mechanised farming through objects and spaces connected with the property’s past. Its collection includes farming equipment, furniture and everyday belongings. The family history gives the exhibits a local focus, with the guided visit linking objects to the people who used them.

Tours are available in English as well as Italian. A guide can point out details across the collection and explain the traditions behind them, so the visit is more than a walk through old rooms and tools.

Rooms, workshops and the park

The farmhouse offers a view of domestic life, while the work areas show the skills and equipment used around the property. The blacksmith’s shop is one stop; woodworking and leather tools give a sense of the range of practical work carried out on a farm.

Outside, paths lead through shaded grounds with animals including donkeys, horses, rabbits and birds. The park and farm setting make room for a slower visit after the indoor exhibits. There is also a small bar for drinks and snacks, with local food among the options.
