Tribunali o Kalsa, Historic district in central Palermo, Italy.
The district contains narrow streets connecting numerous churches, palaces, and squares throughout its medieval layout extending from Via Maqueda to Foro Italico.
Arab settlers constructed the Al-Khalesa fortified citadel in the 9th century, establishing their administrative center before Norman conquest in 1072.
The area holds several art galleries, regional museums, and architectural monuments reflecting Arabic, Norman, and Baroque influences across different periods.
Visitors access the district through walking tours starting at Palazzo Abatellis, exploring religious buildings, fountains, and historical landmarks within 2.3 kilometers.
Medieval prison cells inside Palazzo Chiaramonte-Steri contain preserved graffiti created by inmates during the Spanish Inquisition period.
