Castelsardo is a picturesque historic town on the northern coast of Sardinia, Italy. The old town, fortified with a castle, is an interesting and atmospheric place to visit. Castelsardo's castle, the Castello dei Doria, is the town's principal tourist sight. It houses the Museo dell'Intreccio del Mediterraneo, a museum of basket-weaving, an important local handicraft. Around the various rooms and halls of the castle are cases containing all sorts of local woven products, from fishing nets to grain storage vessels. The castle was built by the Doria family of Genoa, and for several years in the fourteenth century Castelsardo, then called Castelgenovese, was the home of a Doria bride: the Sardinian heroine Eleanora d'Arborea. The museum is interesting, especially if you are thinking of purchasing some local woven craft products to take home. One of the best bits of the castle, though, is its terrace up among the battlements, with views over the town, along the coast, out to sea over the Gulf of Asinara and towards Corsica.
