Casino And Grand Hotel Cabourg - Best Photos And Videos

In 1861, Mr Deschange had the Grand Hotel built alongside the wooden Casino, on the very edge of the shore. From then on the Casino was no longer the only building to stand out on the coastline. In 1867, Mr Isouard, the new owner of the Grand Hotel decided to build a new Casino. This time a well-designed stone construction, including a vast ballroom serving also as a theatre, the room was framed by the boxes of the dress circle and the upper circle. The hall was some 30 metres long, it measured 12 metres wide and 12 metres high. It could hold balls, concerts, meetings and plays.

In 1892 Charles Bertrand became owner of the Cabourg Grand Hotel and Casino. After becoming a member of local council in 1894, he went on to be elected Mayor in 1896. Whilst Mayor he created near the church the Garden Tennis Courts. He created also the Golf Course, near the Race Course (at that time in Le Home).
With the help of the Architects Mauclerc and Virault, Charles Bertrand rebuilt the present Grand hotel, it was inaugurated on 7th July 1907. Later in 1909 they rebuilt the casino. The same architects, principally the former, contributed to the creation, between 1880 and 1914, of the superb, opulent-looking villas, especially around the Jardins du Casino. These villas were purchased by wealthy people looking upon Cabourg as the “Queen of the Beaches”.
