About Palermo
Palermo, the capital city of Sicily, is located in the heart of the
Mediterranean sea. Built and grown over the course of
centuries, Palermo conveys a range of diverse cultures and
traditions, from the Fenicians to the Romans, Arabs, Normans
and Spanish-French people, until the recent unification within
the Italian kingdom. Nestled in La Conca d’Oro (the golden
shell) and roughly embraced by Monte Pellegrino and Capo
Zafferano, Palermo was declared “the most beautifully situated
town in the world” by Oscar Wilde – rightly, in many people’s
eyes.
Palermo may not be the natural choice for first-time visitors to
Italy, yet its dark complexities have attracted artists and writers
for centuries: Wagner wrote Parsifal here, and until a few years
Palatine Chapel
ago Jenny Saville operated from a studio in a crumbling 18th-
century palazzo.

About Palermo
Moving from the city center to the more recent quarters of Palermo, in via Ruggero VII and via
Libertà, you will encounter very interesting shopping areas enriched by the presence of the two
main city theatres, Politeama Garibaldi and Massimo, the largest opera theater in Italy and one of
the largest in Europe. Built between 1875 and 1891, it can accommodate more than 1,380
spectators. The opera was designed and supervised by the great Italian architect Giovan Battista
Filippo Basile. It is considered one of the most famous operas in Italy where you can enjoy music
and beautiful room.

Its 16 Departments cover the most important domains of contemporary scientific and technological knowledge. About 122 courses (first and second cycle) are yearly offered as well as 44 master and specialization and 23 PhD courses, targeted to the training of specific professional figures, often in cooperation with external institutions and companies.

With the arrival of Garibaldi in 1860 and the annexation of Sicily to the
Savoy kingdom, the University became entirely secular, the faculty of
Theology was closed and the School for engineers and architects was
established. The university becomes a place of lively political debates and
intense participation in the life of the city, the region, the country…
