"A short trip to the hilltop town of Monreale, just outside Palermo, offers the chance to explore some exceptional Norman-era buildings, most notably the Monreale Cathedral. The church's interior has an extravagant mosaic that covers more than 6,000 square meters (66,000 square feet), much of it glittering with gold. Afterward, stroll through town to window-shop along the narrow lanes and enjoy the view of Palermo in the valley below."

come as early as possible and must go on the rooftop. Magnificent view on the top. But also be careful. No need to rush. Museum is average but the ticket are combined ticket only now.

An amazing place to visit- so much history and in fantastic condition inside and out - the walk round and up to the roof is lovely and the views of Palermo from the top are truly amazing too -a real must visit when in the city and only 30 minutes by bus (R389) to get there

Beautiful cathedral at the top of a hill. Climbing the hill is not difficult, though not suitable for people with mobility limitations. The church is very impressive, especially the interior which has Byzantine and even Islamic influences, blending with the Norman background of the place. Highly recommended.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

⁉️BRIEFLY 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 If you're between 18 and 25 you pay 8€ for the full experience and is worth it. Great view of Palermo and an incredible mosaic within the church. Gold everywhere. ❗Some attractions close at 12:45 so be mindful of planning before that.

One of the highlights of our trip to Sicily. This is a magical and unforgettable place. The beauty is breathtaking. A must see up on the mountain tops. Get the open top bus there.

I visited all the Norman Byzantine cathedrals of Sicily, all are wonders to behold. However, this place is truly a wonder. The exquisite stone masonry, the mosaics, the sheer opulence and scale of the cathedral makes it a landmark. The view across Palermo from the high points is a further reason to make it a must see. The local buses take you up the hill to get there, it's a short climb after that. For me the stonework and the mosaics were astounding. The Baroque chapel to the side, is overdone (IMHO) but of course, Baroque is what it is. The chapel fortunately is kept out of the marvellous central space.

€7 for the cathedral, we were told that 50 min before closing time it was too late to get the audio guide, which meant we did not really know what we were looking at. Twice there was another cash desk where extra payments would have been required to see more. Still, we really liked the mosaics, especially the large Christ Almighty (Pancrator) and the scenes from the bible.

Breathtaking mosaics and stunning architecture make the Cathedral of Monreale a must-visit. The golden Byzantine artwork is mesmerizing, and the views from the terrace are spectacular. A true masterpiece of history and craftsmanship. Worth the visit—don’t miss it!
