Area:Sicily:Palermo : Tourist spot
It is a small chapel dedicated to the Virgin of the Rosary and was built in the 16th century. When you enter the church, you will realize the reason to visit. It is filled with sculptures by Giacomo Serpotta. His cherubs and angels romp with abandon, delightfully climbing onto the window frames or spreading garlands of flowers in their path. They can also be seen sleeping, eating, and simply hugging their knees deep in thought. The oratory is also home to some rich mother-of-pearl benches.
