Nearby Attractions
Catacombs of the Capuchins
These ghastly yet fascinating underground passages house over 8000 former citizens of Palermo in mummified form. A truly unique experience.
Palermo Cathedral
The gigantic structure dwarves everything in its sight. A masterpiece of Norman architecture and a must-see for everyone.
Martorana
This fascinating, richly decorated church is a mix of various architectural styles – Roman, Baroque and Byzantine. Well worth visiting.
Teatro Massimo
A monumental building housing the best scene of Sicily. Surely a must-visit for fans of theatre and culture in general.
Monreale Cathedral
The Sicilians just knew how the build their churches. The domed cathedral in Monreale is another fine example of breath-taking Norman craftsmanship.
Oratory of the Rosary of St. Cita
A surprisingly rich and ornate interior, in contrast to the rather dull exterior. Numerous marble statues and reliefs create a beautiful sight.
Villa Palagonia
A fascinating palace, positioned in calm pleasant gardens. Dating back to the 18th century, this photogenic villa is really worth a visit.
Politeama Theatre
The true heart of Palermo. Not only is this beautiful building home to many great music shows, but the area around it is also a vibrating social centre of the city.
Villa Trabia
An enchanting 18th century villa with a quiant garden, built in Classicist style. The garden is a superb place for relaxation.
Chiaramonte Palace
Originally a mansion and later the seat of the Inquisition, the 14th century palace is a powerful memento to Sicily's history.
