Step inside the Casino of Marino, a small villa that hides far more than its exterior suggests. Follow a guide through 16 neo-classical rooms and learn how the building's clever design worked.

📖

Full description

The Casino of Marino is a compact neo-classical country house finished in 1759, far more elaborate inside than its modest outline suggests. Visits are by guided tour of its 16 rooms, and reviewers consistently single out the guides, whose storytelling brings out clever details such as the building's advanced drainage and underfloor heating.

The elegant proportions and decorative interiors make it a good fit for couples and anyone interested in architecture. Entry is budget-friendly and the visit takes roughly 45 minutes, with little walking involved.

Reviews

We had an incredible experience touring the Casino of Marino with Eddie as our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable, warm, kind and funny and really brought the history of the place to life. Just an incredibly interesting place that shouldn’t be missed. Highly recommend a visit there!
