Created by the Palermian architect Ernesto Basile, the villa now hosts wonderful private parties.

The villa, from the clear liberty influences inspired by the Viennese secession, was commissioned by Prince Manganelli on the occasion of his third wedding.

The construction started in 1907 (then it stood in an area considered as peripheral and detached from the city) and was then divided in 1956 between the Mirone family (to which go t the basement, half of the movable floor, the mezzanine floor, half of the mezzanine on the first floor and half of the roof plan with the relative turrets) and the Palumbo family (to which the rest went).

Never inhabited by the Manganelli family – perhaps because of the two Wars – the villa was revalued in 1971 by the Superintendency of Cultural Heritage which declared it to be an architectural historical and artistic heritage.

In 1975 the mezzanine became the site of the Piccadilli palace and in 1981 the first floor of the villa was devastated by an arson and then resumed by the Palumbo family itself.
