Cloister of Cefalù Cathedral

The Cloister of Cefalù Cathedral, a highlight of the UNESCO-listed 12th-century cathedral, stands as the oldest of its type in Sicily and a stunning example of Norman architecture. Located in the heart of Cefalù, this cloister features original capitals carved with scenes from the Old and New Testaments along three of its sides; the eastern side was lost to a 19th-century fire. The central garden, divided into four parts symbolizing the four books of the Bible, offers a serene space for reflection. Visitors can explore the intricate stonework and enjoy the tranquil ambiance of this historic site.
