ROYAL PALACE OF PALERMO
The Royal Palace is the symbol of the wealth, political power and culture of the Norman kingdom.
It became the center of European culture and art between the 12th and 13th centuries, mainly thanks to the influence of Frederick II. In fact, in these sumptuous and refined environments, the most important European culture of the time developed: here Frederick II gathered the greatest scientists and poets, musicians and painters of the time.
Inside the Royal Palace, kept as a treasure, is the Palatine Chapel, which represents the mixture between different cultures and religions on an architectural and decorative level, as Byzantine, Islamic and Latin workers were involved in its construction.
