Casino Municipal, Casino and theatre in La Rochelle, France.
Casino Municipal is a gaming casino and theater building in La Rochelle situated near the waterfront with a prominent facade. Inside, multiple gaming halls contain table games and slot machines alongside a dedicated performance space for shows.
The building started in 1827 as a bathing house called Bains Marie-Thérèse under the patronage of the Duchess of Angoulême. It transformed into a municipal casino in 1902 when the location's use and purpose completely changed.
The building serves as a venue where gaming and theater come together, creating a space for different kinds of entertainment. The halls reflect the Belle-Époque aesthetic that shaped the city during that era.
The location is central in La Rochelle and easily reached on foot from most parts of the city. Visitors should know the venue operates both daytime and evening hours to accommodate different activities and preferences.
The building was originally a bathing house that drew guests from across France before its purpose shifted dramatically. This transformation makes it an interesting example of how historical structures adapted to new uses over time.
