The famous French writer Guy de Maupassant called the Cappella Palatina “the most beautiful in the world, the most surprising religious jewel ever dreamt of by man”. It is not hard to agree with his assessment. The Cappella Palatina or Palatine Chapel, located in the Palace of the Normans, contains a harmonious blend of a myriad of cultures, including Byzantine, Norman, Arabic, and Sicilian, creating a truly amazing architectural and artistic result. Located in the Palazzo dei Normanni, the Cappella Palatina is home to some of the most beautiful mosaics in the world, depicting famous scenes from the bible. The wooden ceiling styled into Arab-style stalactites and alveoli dating back to 1143 and the marble floor are just as wonderful. The Cappella Palatina served as the royal chapel for the Sicilian Norman rulers. King Roger II commissioned this place of worship in 1132, however it wasn't until 1140 that it was consecrated to Saint Peter and Saint Paul.

Capela Palatină se află în Palermo, în interiorul Palatului Normanzilor. Începută de Ruggero II după încoronarea sa (1130) şi sfinţită în anul 1140, este dedicată Sf. Petru şi Pavel. Interiorul este înfrumuseţat de o foarte fină şi elaborată decoraţie pereţii fiind în întregime îmbrăcaţi cu mozaicuri figurative. În conformitate cu schema latino-occidentală, figura centrală a lui Hristos Pantocrator domină bolta absidei iar după modelul bizantin-oriental aceeaşi imagine este aşezată în centrul cupolei. Capela este înfrumuseţată de ceea ce constituie cea mai mare splendoare, cel mai imprevizibil sistem de acoperire care se poate imagina: tavanul din lemn şi alveole sculptate, cum se pot admira la Cairo şi la Damasc, cu decoraţiuni picturale amestecate – cele mai vechi care se cunosc. Este o capodoperă a artei ebenistice arabe, la a cărei artişti a recurs regele Ruggero pentru a-i decora capela.
