The Casino is an impressive building with a rich history. Designed by Sir William Chambers in the late 18th century, it was intended as a garden temple for James Caulfeild, the 1st Earl of Charlemont, near his residence, Marino House, which was located in the countryside at the time. Recognised as a key example of neoclassical architecture in Ireland, the Casino stands out for its unique design and historical significance. Its elegant features and thoughtful construction reflect the artistic values of its era.
