The Cathedral of Monreale is nothing short of spectacular. Built in the late 12th century, and decorated with incredible mosaics, it is one of those places that should be high up on your bucket list. But there is so much to see there that it might be just a little overwhelming when you get there.
So let me show you around the place and tell you all about its style, history and of course the fantastic Mosaics.

Thank you so much for the video! I wouldn't be able to pick out a lot of these visual details and this helps to point me in the right direction to focus my attention ♥

Yes, you really DO need to see this cathedral in person. Its wall and ceiling mosaics are overwhelming and dominate the entire scene. The most amazing church we saw in 3 months of touring Italy, apart perhaps from St Peter's in the Vatican.

I visited in 2018. I love how you explained the art history of Monreale. When I was there I was so in awe that I didn't listen much to our guide! I was too busy snapping photos. Still one of my favorite places on earth.

I wish I was there now. I was there ages ago, but only now got around to turning it into a video. But I really do recommend going there. In the fall or the spring preferably.
