Stop At: Faro di Capo Spartivento, Domus de Maria, Sardinia Italy
Built-in 1854 by the Italian Navy, the Lighthouse of Capo Spartivento was one of twenty lighthouses wanted by Victor Emmanuel II of Savoy, whose wrought-iron initials still feature above the entrance door.
The target of the American planes’ machine guns during World War II was restored only once, right after the conflict.
It housed the lighthouse keepers until the 1980s when the light signal was automated and their work was no longer required.
It faded into oblivion for over 30 years, until 2006, when its new life began.
A metamorphosis that started years ago, a childhood dream set aside for a long time, an ambitious project that has become a reality thanks to the passion and dedication of those who put their heart and soul in it.
Today, with its guiding light still shining, Faro Capo-Spartivento is the first and only lighthouse in Italy converted into a guest house: a project prized by the Italian Navy as a fine example of military architectural restoration.
