Santa Maria dello Spasimo

Santa Maria dello Spasimo, originally intended as a church, remains unfinished, leaving an open sky where the roof should be. This unique characteristic transforms the space into a dramatic venue for concerts and events, benefiting from natural acoustics and atmospheric lighting. Built in the early 16th century, it holds significant historical value, having served various roles throughout history, including as a theater and hospital. Its blend of ecclesiastical architecture with an open-air experience makes it a standout attraction in Palermo.
