The Tomba De Villa, one of the historical heritage assets acquired by the Municipality of Porto Torres, will be the subject of restoration. The monument, built in the early 1990s inside the municipal cemetery in via Balai by a wealthy De Villa-Noce family of Cagliari origin, is subject to cultural and environmental protection.

The structural failures, with detachments of part of the facade embellished with decorations and reliefs, forced the municipal administration to entrust the design to a professional, the architect Giovanni Leoni, to draw up a recovery plan with an investment of 26 thousand euros.

The works involve making the now dilapidated monument safe, with collapses that endanger the cemetery's visitors themselves. The area was cordoned off to allow restoration work. The action of atmospheric agents led to the collapse of the cornices and decorative parts. It had been included among the abandoned tombs listed among those with the highest structural criticality. Inside there are six niches and six cells containing the cinerary urns.
