Laconi spreads across the Sarcidano plateau in central Sardinia, an upland position that has kept the town closely connected to the island’s pastoral interior. Its historic centre is associated with Saint Ignatius of Laconi, the Capuchin friar born here in 1701 and canonised in 1951; his birthplace remains a site of devotion. Palazzo Aymerich contains the Museo della Statuaria Preistorica, where prehistoric menhirs and statue-menhirs place Laconi within Sardinia’s deep pre-Roman past. Nearby Parco Aymerich extends around the ruins of Aymerich Castle, adding woodland to the town’s cultural itinerary.
