Local before arrival
Even though gambling often does not have the very best reputation, a visit to Wiesbadens Casino, which is connected tot he Kurhaus (spa) is something really special. In the former wine hall, the "Big Game", Roulette, Blackjack and Poker takes place, while the "Small Game", with vending machines, is housed in the Spa Colonnades, the longest portico in Europe. The foundation stone for gambling in Wiesbaden was laid by Prince Carl von Nassau-Usingen as early as 1771.
