Stepping into the Cattedrale di Monreale feels like walking into a living masterpiece. Located just outside Palermo, Sicily, this stunning Norman cathedral is known for its awe-inspiring blend of Arabic, Norman, and Byzantine architecture.

Built in the 12th century under King William II, the cathedral is famous for its breathtaking golden mosaics that cover over 6,000 square meters of surface! These intricate mosaics depict scenes from the Bible, with the central Christ Pantocrator at the apse being one of the most iconic images in Christian art.

The cathedral's exterior, with its Romanesque design and impressive double bell towers, offers a striking contrast to the opulent interior, where the light catches the gold tiles, creating a divine glow that feels almost otherworldly.

The Basilica di Santa Prassede was a Titulus church, meaning it was one of the first churches built in Rome and likely the first built in the middle of the fourth century under Pope St. Siricius.
