Casino de Fouras, Gaming establishment in Fouras, France
The Casino de Fouras is a gaming establishment housed in a modern building with gaming rooms, a restaurant, and a performance space that doubles as a cinema. The facility sits within a large oak-filled park and combines different types of entertainment in one location.
The casino was founded in 1886 in the rooms of Château du Bois-Vert and moved to a new building in 1908 set within a seven-hectare oak park. The relocation reflected the growth of Fouras as a tourist destination during the early 1900s.
The casino serves as a social hub where locals and visitors gather for shows and entertainment programs. It plays a role in the region's cultural life by hosting performances that draw people together.
The casino opens at 10 AM most days with extended hours on weekends and certain weekdays. Visitors should check what activities are available on the day of their visit and whether certain areas have specific entry requirements.
During World War II, German forces used the casino building as a shelter for their horses, giving the site an unexpected chapter in its past. This period shows how leisure spaces can become repurposed during times of conflict.
