La cultura islámica en la Sicilia medieval ilustra cómo el gran patrimonio artístico y cultural de los árabes, que gobernaron la isla en los siglos X y XI, fue asimilado y reinterpretado durante el posterior reinado normando, y alcanzó su apogeo en la era resplandeciente de Ruggero II, en el siglo XII. Los espectaculares paisajes costeros y de montaña proporcionan el telón de fondo para las visitas a las ciudades, los castillos, jardines, iglesias y antiguas mezquitas cristianizadas. Diez recorridos le invitan a descubrir 91 museos, monumentos y yacimientos en Palermo, Monreale, Mazara del Vallo, Salemi, Segesta, Erice, Cefalú y Catania, entre otras localidades.
