Top Palermo Museums

One of the most delightful museums in Sicily, the International Museum of Marionettes Antonio Pasqualino offers a behind-the-scenes look at the island’s rich puppeteering culture and history. Avoid a delay at the entrance with this pre-booked ticket and dedicate your time to the fascinating collection of Sicilian and international marionettes inside. Take in the three floors of the museum housing puppets, a book and video library, theater, and bookshop.

Discover Mediterranean and Sicilian nature and be amazed by the poetic and naturalistic content of 120 exhibits enclosed in the drawers of old counters. Starting from the intrinsic poetics of nature, which is based on the interconnection between the elements, Radici was born from the desire to combine the scientific approach with a new narrative. The story awakens and cultivates biophilia as an essential feeling and code of our time. Scientific approach, ecological thinking, poetic language: Radici offers guided tours and experiences for adults, families and children. The Museum is, first of all, a common observation point from which to discover nature, the territory and its environment, to learn to read its stories and landscapes. The analogue exhibits, the illustration, the scientific experiences and the technological proposals, which do not forget to involve the body, characterize our journey.
