Summary
| Description |
Español: La Cuba était une des résidences, situées en dehors de la ville dans le parc royal appelé Génoarde, construites par les souverains normands de Sicile et destinées à leurs loisirs.
La Cuba date de 1180. C'est un édifice rectangulaire initialement orné d'une coupole qui a disparu. Le bâtiment était entouré d'un grand lac artificiel appelé la Peschiara. A l'intérieur, l'espace central avait en son centre une vasque d'où coulait l'eau vers le bassin extérieur. L'intérieur décoré dans le style arabe disposait de voutes à encorbellement en stalactiques (mouqarnas). Le photo en rend compte. Comme pour d'autres résidences arabo-normandes, la façade est ornée de grandes arcatures, sans fenêtres. La façade se termine par une frise épigraphique en caractères coufiques indiquant le nom du roi Guillaume II et la date de construction. Article de Wikipedia sur la CubaEnglish: Cuba was one of the residences, located outside the city in the royal park called Genoarde, built by the Norman sovereigns of Sicily and intended for their leisure.
fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palais_de_la_CubaCuba dates from 1180. It is a rectangular building initially decorated with a dome that has disappeared. The building was surrounded by a large artificial lake called the Peschiara. Inside, the central space had in its center a basin from which water flowed to the outer basin. The interior decorated in the Arabic style had stalactic corbelled vaults (mouqarnas). The photo shows this. As with other Arab-Norman residences, the facade is decorated with large arches, without windows. The facade ends with an epigraphic frieze in kufic characters indicating the name of King William II and the date of construction. Wikipedia article on Cuba |
