Palazzo Zacco

The palace exhibits two street facades adorned with six large balconies, featuring elaborate stone carvings of musicians, grotesque faces, and mythological figures.

Baron Melfi di Sant'Antonio commissioned the construction of this residence in 1750, which later became the property of the Zacco family in the following century.

The building contains the Museum of Peasant Time, displaying traditional agricultural tools and artifacts that represent the regional farming heritage of Sicily.

Located at the intersection of Via San Vito and Corso Vittorio Veneto, the palace stands as a national monument open for architectural and historical tours.

Each balcony support features different carved figures, including one depicting a musician playing maracas next to a face making expressions at street passersby.
