Casino OOSTENDE / BELGIUM description:After the second world war, a tournament was organized to replace the casino
which was broken off by the Germans for the Atlantikwal. The winner was Léon
Stynen.
The entrance of the largest casino in Belgium (accoriding to certain sources even the
largest in Europe) is orientated to the city of Ostend. The large concert room is oriented
to the sea, which provides the unique character of the building. A glaze wall allowes to
use the sea as decor...
During the years 1960 an unhandy theatre tower was build, breaking the link to the sea.
Lack of care for the building brought breaking off the building close iat the end of the
years 1990. Anyway, the decision was taken to restore the building, giving it its
autenticity...
