Aurum, Palace and national heritage in Pescara, Italy.
Aurum is a palace and national heritage building in Pescara distinguished by its geometric forms, large windows, and innovative structural design. Designed by architect Giovanni Michelucci, it now contains various spaces for events and public gatherings.
Originally built as a liquor factory by the Amoroso family, the building underwent major transformation after World War II. It evolved from a production facility into a significant center for cultural and artistic activities.
Today it serves as a venue for exhibitions and festivals where you can feel the city's commitment to art and local talent. People from the region gather here to see contemporary works and participate in cultural discussions.
The building sits near the Adriatic coast and is easily reached by public transportation from Pescara's center. You should check ahead since opening times vary based on current events and exhibitions.
The event halls occupy spaces that once housed liquor production equipment, creating an unusual link between industrial heritage and modern cultural use. This contrast remains noticeable in the architecture and daily operations as you move through the halls.
