Casino Cosmopol, Göteborg, State-operated casino in central Gothenburg, Sweden
Casino Cosmopol in Gothenburg is housed in a historic customs building and features slot machines, poker rooms, and various table games for card enthusiasts. The venue combines gaming options with the preserved character of a protected structure in the port district.
The casino opened in 2002 following a Swedish government decision in the early 2000s to establish a network of four international gaming venues across the country. This initiative resulted in casino operations in several major Swedish cities.
The casino maintains Swedish gambling regulations through Svenska Spel, directing all profits to the national treasury while implementing strict identification and age verification procedures.
Entry requires valid identification documents and age verification checked at the entrance. Visitors should confirm current opening hours as they vary depending on the gaming area.
The building was originally a customs house and stands at Packhusplatsen in the port area, where it remains connected to the city's maritime heritage. The conversion to a gaming venue shows how historical structures can serve new purposes.
