Lonely Planet review for Teatro Massimo
The grand neoclassical Teatro Massimo took more than 20 years to complete. Nowadays the theatre is an iconic Palermo landmark and has become a symbol of the triumph and tragedy of the city. Appropriately, the closing scene of The Godfather: Part III, with its visually stunning juxtaposition of high culture, low crime, drama and death, was filmed here.

2nd largest theater in ALL of Europe
patrizioa recommends this,
ok so it is actually the 3rd largest building (theater) but the second largest stage... this place is HUGE! It really is a must see on your visit to Palermo. It is close and in easy walking distance to almost everything. There are tons of good places to eat close and there are times when you can get tours of Massimo. During Christmas time the Christmas decorations are stunning. If you want to see more of my pics and all the best places to visit in Palermo Check out my website WhereIsPalermo.com
