The Casino Phenomenon
A guided tour of the historic Casino Community House in Mariánské Lázně led by the director of the West Bohemian Symphony Orchestra. Discover the building's architecture, halls, and the orchestra's history.
The Casino social house in Mariánské Lázně was built between 1899 and 1901 as part of the Nové Lázně hotel and remains one of the most important cultural and congress venues in western Bohemia. The Italian Neo-Renaissance building has six halls with a combined capacity of over a thousand people - the largest being the Marble Hall for 450 guests. The rooms are known for their excellent acoustics and regularly host the West Bohemian Symphony Orchestra, the oldest symphony orchestra in the Czech lands. In 1946, the first international film festival in Czechoslovakia took place here - the forerunner of today's Karlovy Vary festival.
