Beautiful church of Arab-Norman style with three red domes with oriental curved forms

This beautiful Arab-Norman style church is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You won't be able to miss it, with its three red domes with oriental curved shapes. Built in 1160, restored at the end of the 19th century, it has been remodelled many times. The bare interior has three naves with Arabic arches, separated by columns crowned with beautiful capitals. Admire its beautiful mosaic flooring from the Norman period. This church is one of the emblematic remains of the Islamic influence in Sicily.

Typique de l'art arabo-normand, elle est l'un des symboles de la ville.

Jolie petite église un peu dénudée mais à visiter. Mieux vaut le faire avant la Martorana.

Très Petite église intéressante par son architecture, mais pour 2.5€/personne cela ne vaut pas le coup pour ma part. Cher pour ce que c’est. L’eglise Juste à côté est beaucoup plus jolie avec des mosaïques dorées style arabo-normand comme La Chapelle palatine.

Cette petite église est très belle et très originale : à l'extérieur, il y a trois domes, et à l'intérieur, elle est couverte de superbes mosaïques.
