Lieu agréable avec de belles expositions. Les guides à l'intérieur sont adorables et expliquent très bien les fresques et sculptures.

La fresque du Triomphe de la mort, mérite à elle seule la visite de ce palais. Que ce soit dès le rez de chaussée o dès le premier étage, la fresque est époustouflante. D'ailleurs elle a été filmée par Wim Wenders (Palermo Sooting).

Le lieu est paisible et agréable. Les collections de ce musée sont chouettes mais pas non plus exceptionnelles.
