Walked in here thinking it was Chiesa di San Giovanni degli Eremiti, paid €3 pp for an average church and climbed up a small tower with really not much of a view
Visiting this church is an amazing experience. I wore a helmet for the first time in church. It's a priceless experience 😁😁😁
Great experience to climb old belltower with a helmet. The guy was very friendly and the view from above amazing, definetly don't miss in Palermo.
Vi consiglio di visitare questa graziosissima chiesa situata nel centro storico di Palermo. Il biglietto d’ingresso per la chiesa e godere della vista panoramica dal campanile è pari a 3,50€. È un posto suggestivo, soprattutto il paesaggio dall’alto, vi lascerà senza parole. Per giungere sul campanile bisogna percorrere delle rampe di scale strette e abbastanza ripide, l’ultimo tratto è costituito si passa ad una scala a chiocciola. Sconsiglio vivamente la visita a chi ha anche delle lievi difficoltà motorie e a coloro i quali soffrono di vertigini.
Its interesting how it got so many positive reviews. I would have given a minus 1 if I could. This is clearly a tourist trap due to its proximity to San Giovanni degli Eremiti. I felt cheated at the end of my visit. The so-called pano view was not the greatest either… as you can see from other posters, the tree is blocking the roofs of San Giovanni degli Eremiti. Not to mention the climb has some serious Heath and Safety hazards. Save your money and go get a freshly squeezed pomegranate juice. Cheers!
This was an unexpected find. You get some great views of the Church of St John of the Hermits from the tower, and the underground grotta which is included with the price of admission is amazing too. At half the price of the nearby church, this is a great deal.
I couldn't believe my eyes when I read the other reviews about this church... The only worth are the views from the roof, a part from that, it seemed a joke... The place is messy and not well take care of, and the 'museum' and the figures pretending to be scary in the 'secret cave' are just ridiculous. Don't waste your money there, there are better things to do in Palermo!
Lovely Church.
