The Palermo Cathedral (officially called Santa Maria Assunta, and sometimes known simply as the Duomo) is the cathedral church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Palermo and was founded in the 1185. The interior of the Cathedral contains tombs of several members of the Sicilian royal family, some dating from the 12th century. The treasury has many pieces of religious art and church vestments on display, and the crypt holds some sarcophagi from the Ancient Roman era. A visit to the crypt will give you a chance to see the original floor plan.
