San Domenico
Piazza San Domenico • Tues–Sun 8.15am–noon, Sat & Sun also 5–7pm
The northern limit of La Vucciria market is marked by the church of San Domenico,
whose fine eighteenth-century facade, with its double pillars and slim towers, is lit at
night to great effect. Inside, a series of tombs contains a horde of famous Sicilians –
parliamentarians, poets and painters – of little interest to foreigners except to shed
some light on Palermitan street-naming.
