Statue af Santa Rosalia - Palermo

Description

Beliggende på en privilegeret placering i centrum af pladsen ved Katedralen i Palermo, er dette monument dedikeret til Santa Rosalia, beskytter af byen.

Det blev lavet af hvid marmor af V. Vitaliano i 1744.

Der er en legende om Santa Rosalia: Rosalia Sinibaldi var en ung adelskvinde af normannisk oprindelse, der trak sig tilbage for at leve på bjerget og levede livet som eremit. Århundreder senere blev Palermo ramt af pest og det siges, at Santa Rosalia viste sig for en jæger, hun viste ham vejen til at finde hendes rester og bad ham om at bære dem i procession gennem byen.
Ifølge legenden blev de syge helbredt dér, hvor de blev bragt, hvilket satte en stopper for epidemien.

Senere blev der bygget et helligdom til hendes ære på toppen af Monte Pellegrino, og Rosalia blev valgt som beskytter af Palermo.
