Santa Rosalia newsstand in Palermo vandalized: Via Coltellieri residents clean it up

Explaning the article in brief:

The article talks about the vandalization of the Santa Rosalia votive shrine in 1837 at Vucciria, Palermo, which was already in a state of neglect. Residents of Via Coltellieri came together to clean and restore the chapel, with support from a nearby bar. The vice president of the First District, Antonio Nicolao, mentioned that the chapel was in complete abandonment and the request for help was made by Father Giuseppe Di Giovanni from the La Pietà parish. The restoration was done quickly and a project called “Visit the 7 churches” will start, including a visit to Via Coltellieri where the shrine is located. Nicolao emphasized that the shrine is almost 200 years old and could not be left in its current state.
