The island of Sicily boasts some of the Mediterranean’s most stunning architectural treasures, reflecting centuries of diverse cultural influences.
From ancient Greek temples to Norman cathedrals and baroque palaces, Sicily’s built heritage tells the story of successive civilizations that left their mark on this strategic crossroads. The CHORAL project is working to document and preserve these remarkable sites for future generations.
Our current focus includes the magnificent Casina Cinese in Palermo, a unique example of chinoiserie architecture that blends European and Asian design elements. Through digital documentation and conservation planning, we aim to ensure this treasure remains accessible to visitors for years to come.
