Villa Trabia alle Terre Rosse, Historic villa and library in the Libertà district, Palermo, Italy

Villa Trabia alle Terre Rosse, also called the Casena dei Trabia alle Terre Rosse, is a historic villa in Palermo. Its classical-style building has a large two-level central body and two side wings enclosing a small courtyard, with the entrance at the centre opening onto Via Antonio Salinas. The park is split in two by a natural drop with old calcarenite quarries, now crossed by a street, and the two halves are joined by a baroque-style bridge.

In 1740, the San Francesco di Paola monastery granted a plot of land in the red earth area between Monte Pellegrino, Gallo, and Billiemi, and the estate began to take shape as a private residence. Over time the property changed hands several times before passing to the city of Palermo.

The ground floor of the villa houses a public multimedia library that locals use regularly for reading and research. The upper floors hold municipal offices, so the building serves both the neighborhood and the city administration at the same time.

The property has several entry gates on different streets, so it is easy to enter from different directions and walk through the park along various routes. The building houses public services, meaning part of it is open during normal office and library hours.

The garden holds three trees listed as monumental in Sicily's official register: an Araucaria bidwillii about 23 m tall, and two Ficus macrophylla, one with a trunk circumference of 4.8 m and the other about 6 m. The head gardener Vincenzo Ostinelli recorded 2,790 plant species in a 1910 inventory.
