Here are the 5 vital things to know about Casino Marino

1. The History of Casino Marino

The origin of this wonderful neo-classical building that we all love to visit dated as far back as the 18th century. The first Earl of Charlemont, known as James Caulfield needed to build a pavilion in his garden just like the ones seen on his recently concluded tours in those times. He contracted Sir William Chambers an efficient architect working with an architectural firm in London, to design the building. Their paths crossed while on his world tour and the friendship that soon existed between them blossomed into the creation of the perfect design for the magnificent neo-classic building that we all visit and appreciate today.

2. The Name and Its Meaning

Do you know most people think of this site as a gambling zone, the first time they get to learn about it? That would not be surprising to you at all, especially if you were once a stranger in town too. What is very surprising is the fact that some still have that believe, without finding out the truth about the origin of the name. To clear the confusion, the names are of Italian origin, being that the original owner just returned from his trip to Italy before starting the project.
The name ‘Casino’ means a small house while ‘Marino’ means a small sea. Joining these two phrases together will make a statement that says – Small House by Small Sea, which perfectly describes the Casino Marino building, a perfect tourist attraction to see. So, let it be very clear that Casino Marino has nothing whatsoever to do with gambling nor is it a gaming casino as the name might deceive you to believe.
