April 2, 1863 -- Monte Carlo Casino

Speranza

"From a life of slumbering activity, Monaco must rouse itself to courage and action" (Blanc).

The casino was built, and steamers piled from Nizza and Genova.

On 1 June 1866, the casino was christened "Monte Carlo".

The glamour era of Monte Carlo had begun.
