The Liberty Style: A Rich Architectural Heritage in Palermo
The Liberty Style, also known as Art Nouveau, was a popular architectural and decorative style that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Palermo, the capital city of the Italian island of Sicily, boasts a rich history of Liberty Style architecture. Visitors to Palermo can admire the city’s stunning examples of this style, including the Teatro Massimo, the Palazzo dei Normanni (Royal Palace), Villa Trabia, Palazzo Sant’Elia, and the Palazzina Cinese.
Villa Raggiosa: A Jewel of Liberty Style in Mondello
In the same intricate and flowing style, Villa Raggiosa was constructed in Mondello at the beginning of the 1900s. Located less than 7 miles from Palermo, Mondello offers a long stretch of white sand and crystal-clear waters, making it a popular destination for swimming, sunbathing, and water sports such as windsurfing and kiteboarding. In fact, Mondello is home to the World Festival on the Beach, an international gathering that annually brings together various sporting events.
A Perfect Vacation Spot
Mondello also offers a variety of dining options, with numerous restaurants, bars, and cafes lining the beach. This makes it an ideal place to spend a vacation, combining the pleasures of sun, sand, and sea with the opportunity to experience the natural beauty and culture of Sicily.
