• Source: Capella Palatina

Kapel Palatina (bahasa Italia: Cappella Palatina) adalah sebuah kapel (gereja kecil) yang menjadi bagian dari Istana Kerajaan Norman di Kota Palermo, Sisilia. Struktur ini dikenal akan percampuran langgam aristektur Bizantium, Norman, dan Fatimiyah, yang menunjukkan budaya masyarakat Sisilia yang beranekaragam pada abad ke-12 setelah pulau tersebut ditaklukkan oleh Roger I dan Robert Guiscard yang berdarah Norman.
Pembangunan gereja ini diamanatkan oleh Roger II dari Sisilia pada tahun 1132 di atas kapel yang lebih tua (sekarang menjadi ruang bawah tanah). Pembangunannya memakan waktu delapan tahun, sementara mosaik-mosaiknya baru diselesaikan sebagian pada tahun 1143.
