Casino Konstanz, Gaming establishment in Konstanz, Germany

Casino Konstanz is a gaming establishment with multiple floors offering both machine and table games. The venue features slot machines and tables where visitors can play roulette, blackjack, and poker.

The city of Konstanz founded the casino in 1949/1950, and gaming began in June 1951. It occupies the former villa of the Jewish Rothschild family, which was expropriated, returned to the family and then sold by them to the city. The building was extended along its front and a terrace with lake views was added.

Konstanz residents were initially barred from playing at the casino, so its clientele long consisted largely of visitors from Switzerland, who make up 50 to 60 percent of guests. The casino's higher-stakes policy gave it an edge over Swiss casinos near the border.

Casino Konstanz sits at Seestraße 21 on the Lake Constance shore in the Petershausen-Ost district, with a terrace facing the water. The gaming floor holds 133 slot machines, with minimum stakes from one cent to one euro depending on the machine, plus table games. High winnings are paid out directly at the machine and can be handled discreetly.
