Villa Niscemi

Historic Villa in the Parco della Favorita

Nestled in the greenery of the Parco della Favorita in Palermo stands this magnificent 18th-century villa, built at the behest of Prince Valguarnera of Niscemi.
The residence, now owned by the municipality, preserves its treasures intact: from the original furnishings to the sumptuous reception halls.
Of particular value are the main hall, with spectacular trompe l'oeil frescoes, the precious collection of portraits of the kings of Sicily, and the lavish ballroom.
The exterior enchants with a lush exotic garden, which completes the aristocratic atmosphere of this historic place.
