Paradiso sul Mare
On the coast of Anzio, Italy, stands the impressive Paradiso sul Mare – a majestic yet abandoned palace built in Art Nouveau style. Constructed in 1924 as an elegant venue for high-society events, it quickly became a cultural hub for parties, exhibitions, and even plans for a casino. During World War II, it served as Allied headquarters following the Anzio landings. In the 1960s, it was repurposed as a hotel school, but over time the building fell into disrepair and was largely forgotten. Still, its stunning architecture remains, famously featured in Fellini’s film Amarcord, making it a dream location for lovers of history, architecture, and urbex exploration.
