Designed by Roger II in 1130, this extraordinary chapel is Palermo's top tourist attraction.
The fountain was originally created for a garden in Florence in 1551. In 1573 it was sold to the city of Palermo. For the transport the fountain was disassembled in 644 pieces. Because of the nudity of the statues, the square became also known as "Piazza della Vergogna" (Square of Shame).
