Il Rogo dei Libri Proibiti, or The Burning of Prohibited Books, Autodafe, 17th century painting by an unknown artist, in the Cappella di San Domenico, in the Chiesa di Santa Caterina d'Alessandria d'Egitto, or Santa Caterina, a Baroque church built 1566-96 between Piazza Bellini and Piazza Pretoria, in Palermo, Sicily, Italy. Autodafes were regularly held during the Spanish Inquisition under the Catholic Kings from the 15th century, in its protection of Catholicism. Palermo was founded in 734 BC by the Phoenicians, and was settled by the Carthaginians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs and Normans. Its Arab and Norman centre is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
