Cefalù has a beautiful setting, at the foot of a towering rock halfway along the north coast of Sicily. The pretty little fishing harbor and old town streets are dominated by its Norman Cathedral, and a long sandy beach right below the old town has made Cefalù a popular holiday resort. Moreover, the old but stylish Cefalu Cathedral is one of Sicily's major Norman monuments built by Roger II between 1131 and 1240 as an act of thanks to God after surviving a shipwreck nearby. As a matter of fact, inside the Cathedral the Norman architecture and Arab, Byzantine, Latin and Nordic art are harmoniously combined in a wonderful synthesis of styles.
