What travelers are saying

Majestic nave divided by two rows of elegant marble columns, exuberance of the white statues shining on the background of green marble, the beauty of the richly adorned altar - everything in this church leaves you...

Chiesa San Giuseppe - Another huge church in the Quattro Canti area equally as impressive as so many we've already seen, but kind of dark inside with a heavy feel to it... Amazing art!

Free entry - discrete photography allowed.

Beautiful dark marble columns

Been twice. Entered Saturday by ourselves during a mass and again Sunday during a mass. Front door is locked at other times. Beautiful. Need a good guide to explain.

Must view

This is one of the inter city churches that is worth seeing. All the alters are very decorative and you feel as if you are in a real holy environment. .

Nice surprise

Me and mum wandered in and spent a lovely half hour admiring the work in the lady chapel. It was helped by there being a guided tour in English at the same time.

The church I loved the most

not as ornate as the others but this one spoke to my soul - it was so beautiful and calming - just off of the corners - I fear people miss the real gem of a church

Imposing, beautiful

A vast, beautiful Baroque church, immaculately kept, right on the Quattro Canti in the heart of Palermo. Extraordinarily imposing. A short visit will leave an indelible memory. Recommended.

So Ornate!

I think I mixed up some pictures I took inside of Chiesa del Gesu and here at San Giuseppe dei Teatini. That is because they are both similar in the amount of glorious, ornate artwork throughout their entirety. Teatini seems darker overall, when compared to...More

The church you need to see in Palermo.

The church opened at 15:30 and after entering I was greeted by the most beautiful sights of a church that spires its ways to the heavens. I have seen some churches in my time but this is one of the best. Go and it’s free...More

At first glance you would hardly recognise this building as a church. It was only when I crossed the road and later looked around me that I noticed the large gleaming dome above and decided to have a look. Other buildings have similar entrances, a...More
