Sites of naturalistic, archaeological, historical interest

The University of Palermo owns a valuable historical, artistic and naturalistic heritage, added to the museums and collections. Historical buildings of great value, chapels and paintings are regularly open to the public or can be visited on request: the Monumental complex of the Steri, the Crypt of the Repentite, the Convent of Sant'Antonino and the Oratory of the Falegnami are among them. The Fossa della Garofala is a small, still existing and unaltered, remnant of the landscape of  the so-called Conca d'Oro, and has both archaeological and naturalistic interest.
