Cattedrale di Palermo
It is considered the "history book of Palermo", since all the conquerors that have come to this island over the centuries have left traces of their passage; the construction dates back to 1184.

Fontana della Vergogna
The Praetorian Fountain was made in 1554 by the sculptor Francesco Camilliani to decorate a Florentine villa, it was later purchased by the Palermo Senate for an incredibly large sum and arrived in Palermo dismantled into 644 pieces. The obvious nudity of the figures on display did not fail to disturb the souls of the citizens who renamed this site “Piazza della Vergogne”.

Quattro Canti
The crossroads that were created between Via Maqueda and Via Vittorio Emanuele led to the division of the city into four parts called “Mandamenti”. Each of them takes its name from the most important civil building in that area.

Santa Maria dell'Ammiraglio (La Martorana)
The building is made up of the sanctuary, which retains its original square structure with a dome supported by four pointed arches, typical of the Arab-Norman style, and the baroque naves, added at the end of the 17th century.
