    Nicely centrally located

      Piazza Guglielmo II. The main facade of the Duomo di Monreale overlooks this square, although the entrance to the cathedral itself is now located in the neighboring Piazza Vittorio Emanuele. So if you want to see the main facade, the portico between the two towers with the famous bronze door from 1186, you must visit Piazza Guglielmo II. In addition, in the center of this square, on a round flowerbed, there is a statue of the Madonna - in the place where, according to legend, a carob tree grew years ago, under which there was a treasure that Guglielmo II Buono used to build the temple. If, however, you do not believe in legends and want to travel to modern times, know that on this square in a former Benedictine monastery is Galleria di Arte Moderna.

        Especially in the morning hours, the square has its very own charm.
