Tour Starting Point
Piazza XIII Vittime
V. Francesco Crispi, 90133 Palermo PA, Italy
A rust-red steel memorial rises where Palermo's harbor meets its streets. Named for thirteen guards killed in 1860, this square sets the tone for the city's long, unfinished fight against power.

The port where the Mafia first gripped Palermo's commerce is also where quiet resistance began. Two magistrates born in these streets would eventually put 338 bosses behind bars.
Two faces painted five storeys high on a Palermo wall. Falcone and Borsellino look out over the city they refused to abandon, rendered in color that makes declarations instead of decorations.
