The Italian language school Culturforum is situated in the city centre of Palermo, the regional capital of Sicily, a city full of hidden treasures to explore.

Walking through the buzzing streets of the city you will discover artistic gems at every corner, witnesses to its millennia-long history: 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.

Here you can enjoy the voices, the colours, the smells, the flavours and friendliness of a city still today swinging between East and West and where North and South meet creating an intriguing Mediterranean atmosphere permeated by oriental charm.

Learning Italian with Culturforum, does not just mean studying a foreign language, but having an all-round discovery experience.
