It was normal to see aristocrats and wealthy customers in this place. After 2 centuries and a half, the place still operates and has become one of the most touristic sites of this town.

The Monte Carlo Casino

The “Casino de Monte-Carlo” is surely the casino of most renown in Europe. Located in Monaco, and without a doubt one of the most famous casinos around the globe. It was built in 1863, by the work of the famous architect Charles Garnier, responsible for imposing buildings such as the Paris Opera. With its marble atrium, frescoes and sculptures, it is one of the most luxurious and solemn places to enjoy gambling and betting.

The Casino of Venice

The “Casinò di Venezia” was built in 1509, but it ended up being inaugurated in 1638, first with the name of "Ridotto de San Moisés" which makes it the oldest casino in the world.

The Wiesbaden Casino

The Wiesbaden Casino is said to have the most majestic spa in the world, ideal place to exercise your mind after a long gambling session.
