Discover a city that is finally rebelling against the Mafia’s protection racket. See the significant monuments and places of the city making thinking about the realities of the Mafia and consider the civic movement against Mafioso power.

The tour ends at Antica Focacceria San Francesco, one of the oldest restaurants in Palermo, listen how the owners were so strong to react out against extortion.
