This is Monte Carlo, Monaco. The building with the two towers is the Casino. The small tower in the foreground is part of the old fortifications on the Rock of Monaco that has been incorporated into the Fort Antoine Theatre.

Thanks for pointing out the historic features as well as for pinning down the location so quickly. What a dramatic contrast between then & now.
