Historic houses in Sicily reveal the island through noble palaces, villas, stone courtyards, gardens and carefully preserved interiors. The Sicily Luxury selection brings together residences open to visitors, venues for private events and properties offering accommodation, from Palermo to Catania, Caltagirone and Ragusa. Each profile explores the building’s history, architecture and access arrangements, helping you understand whether it can be visited, reserved for an event or experienced as a place to stay. Consult the individual pages for services, availability and visiting conditions.
A few minutes above the Santa Maria del Monte Staircase stands Palazzo Spadaro Libertini. It is not a museum: no ticket office, no fixed circuit, no rope along the walls. It is a private house that opens its main rooms by arrangement, and the damasks on those walls are the original ones — not replacements, not reproductions.
