Palazzina Zalum, Eclectic palace in Livorno, Italy

Palazzina Zalum is an early-20th-century residential building on Livorno's seafront, near Hotel Palazzo and Terrazza Mascagni. Its main front, facing the sea, rests on a smooth ashlar base with four Corinthian columns and three shells set above the openings; the side facing Hotel Palazzo has pilasters framing the windows. Inside, the entrance is a double-height space lit by a large window, with a monumental balustrade on the upper gallery.

The palace was built around 1909 under engineer Alberto Adriano Padova's design. It originally bordered the now-demolished Villa Queirolo and stood near a former amusement park.

The building housed the Casino dei Nobili until the 1940s, serving as a gathering place for the city's upper class. This function made it a significant social hub near Terrazza Mascagni.

The building sits prominently along Livorno's waterfront next to Hotel Palazzo, making it easily accessible. Visitors interested in architecture can view it conveniently from this main location.

The interior is more ornate than the plain exterior: the ground floor carries bas-reliefs, and the lunettes above hold frescoes of strong colour. The entrance hall rises through two storeys, lit by a large glazed window at the top, with a monumental balustrade around the upper gallery.
