Castellammare o Loggia, Administrative district in central Palermo, Italy.
Castellammare o Loggia extends between Via Maqueda, Via Vittorio Emanuele, Via Cavour, and Via Crispi, forming a polygonal shape in central Palermo.
The district received its name from Castello a Mare, a fortress that stood until 1923 when authorities ordered its demolition following damage from the 1860 uprising.
The Vucciria marketplace within Castellammare represents a central trading hub where merchants display fresh produce, local specialties, and handmade goods.
The district maintains administrative functions as a first-level unit of Palermo since December 21, 1976, serving residents through municipal services.
The district contains the Church of San Giorgio dei Genovesi, the Regional Archaeological Museum Salinas, and multiple historical palaces from noble families.
