Other name of Vigliena square and heart of the baroque city with rounded facades and statues of the four seasons

This is the other name of Piazza Vigliena, the heart of the Baroque city, at the crossroads of Via Vittorio Emanuele and Via Maqueda. At the four corners: the rounded façades of the buildings are decorated with statues and fountains. The architect Giulio Lasso designed them as a theatre set between 1609 and 1620, where he placed the four patron saints of Palermo, Agatha, Ninfa, Christina and Olivia, surrounded by archangels. At the bottom of the fountains, one can admire the statues of the four seasons on which they are placed. Above the fountains are the statues of the Spanish kings.

La Place Quattro Canti à Palerme en Sicile - Italie
La place, ou plutôt le carrefour Quattro Canti, puisqu'il s'agit d'un croisement de rues, est surprenant et magnifique. Les quatre coins des rues sont matérialisés par des façades ornées de statues et des fontaines très belles, représentant les 4 saisons. La foule y est dense et en mouvement pour ne rien manquer du spectacle ! C'est, pour moi, un autre incontournable de Palerme tant pour la beauté que pour l'originalité du lieu choisi.

Plus un carrefour qu une place bien que les rues qui la composent soient piétonnières.
Attention aux velos cependant, ils roulent comme des fous.

Sur cette place 4 fontaines se font face deux à deux, encastrée dans des immeubles. 4 saisons à retrouver.
C'est une belle place qui.meriterait d'être restaurée.
