Villa Bonanno

Villa Bonanno spans across a green space between the Cathedral and old city gate, featuring numerous palm trees and Mediterranean plants throughout its grounds.

The park contains archaeological remains of a Roman villa beneath its surface, preserving evidence of ancient settlements in the Palermo region.

The gardens serve as a meeting point for residents who gather daily near the Cathedral, continuing a tradition that spans multiple generations.

Visitors can access the park through multiple entrances along its perimeter, with benches distributed throughout the grounds for resting and observation.

The park grounds reveal layers of different civilizations, as excavations have uncovered structures from Roman, Arabic, and Norman periods beneath the surface.
