Listen to the audio guide in complete safety by your smartphone and discover the wonders of the Cloister of Santa Maria La Nuova of the Cathedral of Monreale
Through the audioguide the visitor can learn about the history of the complex and the rich and varied decoration of the cloister, which is marked by ogival arches on columns. The accurate description of a selection of capitals will allow to discover the themes linked to the religious iconography of the Old and New Testament, the animals taken from the medieval bestiary and the mediorental tradition with phytomorphic motifs present on the capitals. The cloister is the central point around which the complex of the Benedictine abbey of S. Maria la Nuova, founded in 1174 at the behest of the Norman king William II, develops.
