Palatine Chapel
Inside Palermo's Norman Palace, the Palatine Chapel compresses Byzantine mosaics, Islamic-influenced ceiling work and Latin church architecture into one room.
Why go
Look from the glittering apse to the intricately painted wooden ceiling to see different craft traditions sharing a royal chapel. This is a defined interior visit within the palace complex, not a general walk around Palermo. Palace operations can affect entry, so the current visitor notice matters.
What to look for
Gold byzantine mosaics.
Painted wooden ceiling.
Useful to know
Check palace access and any official closure notice before travelling.
