The numerous halls in the palace also include the large Hercules Room, used for court meetings and transformed in the 16th century. Here you can see two splendid frescoes from 1799 by Giuseppe Velasco, the Apotheosis of Hercules and the Twelve Labors of Hercules, painted in a single color to mimic stone bas-reliefs. The Sicilian Regional Assembly has met here since 1947.
