Apollonio (Zaccaria) Palace

/default/2017/znamenitosti/

The building was generated by amalgamating two existing buildings and additional construction on an empty site facing the sea. The Baroque stone plaque above the entrance with a coat of arms and an inscription tells about the successful renovation of the house in the year 1693. During the thorough research of the interior, a number of neoclassical wall paintings from the first third of the 19th century were discovered.

As in other palaces, you can notice the ambitious nature of the affluent Piran families when it comes to the decoration of their living rooms, as well as the influence of the Venetian fashion trends (located in Župančičeva Street).
