School location
Culturforum, Italian Language and Culture school, is located in Palermo, in an ancient building, a stone’s throw from the central Piazza Marina, and a short walk from the most important monuments, museums and attractions.
Sicily's capital town is a lively city full of style, culture and charm. The millennia-long history of Palermo is attested by its extremely rich and varied artistic and architectural heritage: Punic walls, remains of Roman villas, delightful Arabic dwellings, stunning Norman churches, sumptuous baroque squares, churches, and palazzi, neoclassical theatres and lovely Art Nouveau villas.
The streets of Palermo town centre, reborn to new life after recent restorations, are pulsating with life at any time of day or night. Here you can experience the voices, the colours, the smells, the flavours and friendliness of a city where, with its undeniable controversial sides, north and south meet and that offers a warm Mediterranean atmosphere permeated by oriental charm.
An Italian language course in Palermo will give you the opportunity to discover and experience this fascinating multi-faceted city, truly melting pot of cultures at the border of Europe.
