Best places: Museums in Sicily

👍👍 Worth it. I really recommend it. Good for children and adults. It takes around 1 hour to visit and it is with a guide. You need to book before arriving because it is by small group.

Ancient chapel in the Palazzo dei Normanni known for its elaborate Byzantine mosaics & paintings.

👍👍 Great "project" worth supporting. There are plenty of pictures. Some explanation in English. A film with English subtitle. Since it's a memorial and not a museum, I find it sufficient. It gives some insights and impulses to read more. It doesn't cost entrance but it is possible to buy books or leave...

Large prehistoric cave featuring rock paintings, flint tools & a living nativity at Christmas.

👍👍 It is not just a museum. It is a journey through time and into Sicilian maritime traditions, but it is also a journey into the history of the anti-mafia. It is a fun and happy journey, it is above all a meeting place with the genius of Michelangelo Balistreri, soul and heart of the museum. A must s...

Grand Catholic church in the city center with ornate decor & a collection of precious artworks.

History museum exploring local WWII history through immersive multimedia exhibits.

👍👍 Definitely worth a visit, well curated mixed groupings of mostly contemporary art with a British bias, reflecting the origins of the collection. We ended up taking our time exploring the succession of gallery spaces and spent about 5 hours there. There are no wall captions, as you are invited to exp...

👍👍 One of our best experience in Catania was the (English) guided tour of the monastery (well, university). You can not really visit without the tour, specially during the summer when the University is closed. The tour costs 9 euros and lasts a out 1h20m. If you go on Saturday (maybe Sunday as well, d...

👍👍 Bellissima location,il matrimonio di mia figlia è stato meraviglioso e gli ospiti sbalorditi dalla bellezza del castello e dal cibo....

Historic Greek outdoor theater with seasonal performing arts events & sweeping views.

Ruined Norman stronghold built onto a dramatic seaside rock, with exhibits on past battles & sieges.

👍👍 Un posto grazioso sempre, dove poter trovare ancora sapori antichi di grani siciliani. Nel periodo Natalizio diventa "magico"😍

👍👍 This has to be the most underrated church in the world. Breathtaking interior, probably most PERFECT. Every piece is a work of art. Mostly made of stone, it's no surprise it took 140 years to complete. Please pay a visit to this church when you visit Palermo, I promise you will never forget it. For...

👍👍 Fantastic place. We slept at the accommodation which is in the middle of the peaceful sicilian countryside and then had a private tour of this fascinating mill. It is a family run place built into the natural rock. It is both a museum and a beautiful accommodation. The owners are extremely hospitabl...

8 rooms in a palace apartment featuring nearly 5,000 majolica tiles from Sicily & Campania.

Open-air venue with large models of machines illustrating physics concepts developed by Archimedes.

Flemish tapestries, Chinese enameled elephants & Sicilian paintings in a lavish 19th-century villa.
