Villa Bonanno - Palermo 

Victory Square. Beginning of the twentieth century. In 1905, with the arrangement of Piazza Vittoria in Palermo, Giuseppe Damiani Almeyda designed Villa Bonanno, a villa named after the mayor of Palermo Pietro Bonanno who wanted this work to be built which redeveloped the floor in front of the Norman Palace. The villa is mainly characterized by its luxuriant palm trees and by some elements of considerable interest: "The guardian's house" designed by Almeyda, the marble bust of the mayor Bonanno with the base designed by Ernesto Basile, the monument dedicated to Philip IV made by Nunzio Morello in 1856 but designed in 1661 by Carlo d'Aprile with the collaboration of the Serpotta family and the remains of the two Roman patrician houses which were brought to light in the XNUMXth century.
