EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Casino building in Blankenberge, Belgium, taken in the late 1930s. The Casino, an iconic landmark of this coastal town, stands proudly against the backdrop of the North Sea. With its distinctive tower reaching towards the sky, the building is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the Belgian Riviera during the interwar period. However, the serene scene belies the tumultuous history that was to unfold in the following years. By July 1945, the Casino had been taken over by the NaFI (Navy, Army and Air Force Institutes), marking the end of an era. The Second World War had left its indelible mark on Blankenberge and its beloved Casino. The Casino, originally built in 1863, was a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, offering games of chance, live music, and dancing. Its grand ballroom was the site of many lavish events and social gatherings. But as the clouds of war gathered over Europe, the Casino was forced to close its doors. During the war, the Casino was used as a military hospital and later as a barracks for German troops. The building sustained significant damage, with its once ornate interior reduced to rubble. After the war, the Casino was left in ruins, a sad reminder of the devastation wrought by conflict. The photograph, taken circa 1938, serves as a poignant reminder of the Casino's past glory and the inexorable passage of time. Today, the Casino has been restored to its former splendor, once again welcoming visitors to enjoy its beauty and history.
