If you like games of chance, at least once in your life you should try the experience of challenging Lady Luck in one of the fascinating land-based casinos present in Italy.
Why is it necessary to specify “physical casinos”? Given the rise of online casinos and the very low presence of gambling houses in Italy, this categorization has become essential. In fact, the online casino has almost replaced physical gambling. However, there are still many people willing to get in the car or train to go play live at one of the sumptuous casinos in our area.
Still quite active, traditional casinos have a long history behind them: some of them were built by famous architects, others have retro and Art Nouveau shapes from the early 1900s. Without forgetting the luxurious, shiny and charming interiors of each of these environments. . But where are they located?
Our Italian casinos They are all located in northern Italy., near the territorial borders: this is not a random event, but a precise choice by the legislator. They were placed in these places, on the one hand to favor especially backward areas and, on the other, to intercept all those players who, due to the limited presence of casinos in the area, went abroad to play.
The three real Italian casinos still active are a Venezia, San Vicente y Sanremo. Special mention goes to San Marino Casino: although it is not located in Italy, it is, more than others, in a strategic position, a few steps from the Romagna Riviera, one of the areas most frequented in summer by Italians and foreigners.
we start from Venice Casino. Founded in 1638, it is the oldest casino in the world. There are two locations: Ca' Noghera and Ca' Vendramin. Without a doubt, the most evocative is the second, since the headquarters is located inside an architectural building from centuries past: it was the first residence of the doges and the last of the great composer Richard Wagner. In both Venetian gaming rooms you can choose from a wide variety of games: from French roulette to Chemin de Fer and Texas Hold'em poker.
The Casino of San Vicente or De La Vallèe, is located in Val d'Aosta and is one of the most prestigious gambling houses in all of Europe. This room first opened in 1921 and, since then, its success has been increasing. Gaming halls have numerous types of slot machines, both traditional and fully electronic. Additionally, these slot machines offer 3 different types of jackpots. For those traveling by car, the casino can be easily reached via the A5 motorway leading to Val D'Aosta (exit is Saint Vincent and Chatillon). For those who want to take the train, the closest station to the casino is Chatillon.
Il sanremo casino It is the oldest of the Italian gambling halls and is currently located inside a splendid Art Nouveau building, built at the end of the 19th century. This gambling house has numerous rooms of extreme beauty, which can be accessed through two different entrances. The main one leads to the arcades and slot machines. The Liberty room is also equipped with an area dedicated to smokers and separated from the rest of the Casino. One of the most beautiful rooms of all is the Cinquecento Room, which has 19th century style furniture, on whose walls you can admire beautiful paintings and a beautiful fireplace.
Il San Marino Casino, although not located in Italy, deserves consideration due to its especially convenient position even for those living in central and southern Italy. Founded in 2007, this gaming house is enjoying great success. Unlike other Italian casinos, the one in San Marino does not have traditional gaming tables, but only electronic games, divided into different thematic areas. The building that houses it on two floors is the Palazzo Diamond, located in the Rovereta area and open every day from 14:6 p.m. to XNUMX:XNUMX a.m.
