Description Argentiera was a small village that grew around a silver mine on the north-western Sardinian coastline. It had a very distinctive Far West feel until a couple of years ago: now most of it has been renovated, which turned it into a more mainstream touristic place, but some parts still retain their abandoned charm. This is one of the untouched original structures still standing in the place.

Here are a couple of pictures my son, *GothicNarcissus , took of the same place, one of which I helped shooting:

I think this place appears in the film "My name is nobody" with Henri Fonda and Terence Hill.

It definitely might! Many of those spaghetti western movies were shot in Sardinia, its landscapes fit the genre quite well!

The dilapidated houses on a precipice suggest an early industrial use.

Reminds me of the Old Gold mining dwellings in the US
Very interesting.
Thanks for sharing.

Before it was renovated, it looked even more like a US frontier mining village, there was even a saloon-looking bar! But fortunately, not all of the magic was lost when they renovated it.
