Al Fresco giardino e bistrot In Palermo

23/08/2025: Palazzo Branciforte houses a wonderful collection of ancient ceramics, coins, and other items, as well as temporary exhibitions. Its former puppet workshop is particularly interesting, not only for the age and tradition of this Sicilian heritage, but also for the scenes, characters, and stories it recreates. With a guided tour, general admission is €8, with reduced rates available. Palazzo Branciforte is one of Palermo's most fascinating sites, both for its architecture and its art collections. This historic palace is located in the heart of the city and offers visitors a unique insight into Sicily's noble past, blending historical heritage with contemporary art. Built in the 16th century, it has undergone several transformations and has managed to maintain its original splendor with a modern twist thanks to the restoration carried out by architect Gae Aulenti in the 1990s. It is located at Via delle Botteghe Oscure, 4, in the heart of Palermo. The museum is open to the public every day of the week with the following hours: Monday to Saturday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Sunday: 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM It is recommended to check the hours on holidays or during the summer, as opening hours may be adjusted.

08/08/2025: The fantastic collection of puppets and marionettes is worth the price of admission alone. However, if you want to admire the splendor of the family's former private apartments, you won't find them here. Instead, there's a fresh and modern museum with antique vases, sculptures, and stamps.
