The site chosen was on a hill overlooking Palermo. By a papal bull of 1174 (which refers to the monastery being under construction) the foundation was exempted from episcopal jurisdiction and made subject only to the papacy, which effectively delegated its involvement to the King as Apostolic Legate. In 1176 one hundred Cluniac monks, under the first abbot, Theobald (reg 1176–8), came at William's invitation from the abbey of Santa Trinità at Cava dei Tirreni near Salerno. In the same year William endowed the abbey with extensive properties, including a large area in west-central Sicily, and exempted it from royal taxation. In 1183 Pope Lucius III (reg 1181–5) constituted it as a metropolitan see with an abbot-archbishop; the name Monreale was used here for the first time. Monreale was intended as a royal mausoleum and as a counterweight to the independence of Palermo Cathedral, then being rebuilt by Archbishop Gualtiero Offamilio (reg 1169–90). It is now known chiefly for the mosaic decoration of its church; but the cultural diversity of Norman rule in Sicily is exemplified by the contrast between the Byzantine mosaics and the sculpture of the cloister capitals, which is predominantly Romanesque. William II, who died in 1189, was the last ruler to be buried here.
