Museum of tiles Stanze al Genio

Reservations required!! The museum is open year round for a visit but you must book your visit by email or phone. For reservations just call a few hours before the appointment and agree to the tour. The visits are carried out only in Italian / english.

I'm not sure how a museum can be so unassuming from the outside yet is a real gem inside. There is only a small name on the buzzer to enter but what lies inside is wall to wall ceramic tiles and also displays of vintage pieces and furniture. Entrance fee included a personal guided tour in english or italian. A wonderful experience.

Museo I pupi di Partinico

Il museo dei Pupi della famiglia Canino, nasce per la divulgazione e la conservazione di un'arte antica , popolare siciliana che ha visto i natali nel lontano 1826 dalle abili mani di Don Liberto Canino , capostipite di questa famiglia di artisti che creò la prima armatura metallica palermitana. Con la scomparsa dell'ultimo puparo Nino Canino, lo scorso 11 aprile del 2015, la nuova realtà museale , permetterà a queste splendide creature I PUPI DI NINO CANINO, di continuare a dare lustro a coloro che hanno per tutta la loro vita condiviso le sorti dei PALADINI DI FRANCIA.

Reviewed By 200ellaj - London, United Kingdom

Amazing place! A beautiful house with an incredible history. We arrived out of hours (there is one tour a day, alternating between Italian and English, I think at around 11am) but Maria the manager gave us a personal tour anyway (for a small but completely reasonable fee). The 'secret room' is incredibly special.

This is a little known museum, with spectacualr displays and unusual themes. The juxtapositioning of unrelated objectsmakes it particularly interesting. Well worth a detour
