Casino Barrière de Menton, Art Deco casino in Menton, France.
Casino Barrière de Menton is a gaming and theatre building on the Menton seafront, designed by Roger Séassal and opened in 1934. Its Art Deco facades pair curved corners with geometric relief panels, and inside, gaming rooms sit alongside a theatre auditorium.
Architect Roger Séassal, winner of the 1913 Grand Prix de Rome, designed the casino built in 1934, when the Côte d'Azur was drawing wealthy European visitors. The building replaced an earlier casino on the same seafront site, and its Art Deco forms date from that interwar period of expansion.
The venue combines gaming tables and slot machines with a theater space that hosts performances from classical concerts to contemporary shows. You can use the same location for gambling or to enjoy an evening performance.
The casino is located near the Mediterranean seafront and operates gaming activities until 3 AM. Visitors should wear formal attire and bring valid identification.
