Casino Alemán, Historic monument in San Juan district, Mexico City, Mexico.
The Casino Alemán stands at 23 López Street, featuring architectural elements that reflect early 20th-century construction styles in Mexico City's historic center.
Founded on June 11, 1848, as a gathering place for German expatriates, the building's current location was inaugurated on December 31, 1907.
The German Emperor Wilhelm II presented a marble statue of Alexander von Humboldt to the Casino during Mexico's independence centennial celebrations in 1910.
The building experienced substantial fire damage in December 2002, leading to its current deteriorated condition in Mexico City's historic district.
The Mexican government confiscated the Casino Alemán in 1943 following Mexico's declaration of war against Axis powers during World War II.
