Germany

Germany  Romans are thought to have been the people to have brought gambling to the land under Germany as it is today.
In 1810, the oldest casino in Germany was erected, known as the Casino Wiesbaden- designed by Christian Zais, a notable architect. The site of this ‘new’ structure is overtop of an ancient Roman structure. Today’s Casino Wiesbaden is truly a magnificent building and inside, alluring. It has made for a tourist attraction in the last century. With 6 columns out front and a large waterfall it makes for great photos.
Casinos were closed in 1872 until 1933 covering the first world war. Closed again in 1942 for the second war, due to an inability to regulate the industry. It took them until 1950 to reopen. Restrictions imposed by western states would limit operations until 1995 when Germany once again embraced the pastime in full. There were complications such as The government wanting to monopolise the industry. The EU prevented this and also sports betting was also allowed some privatisation in 2006.
Interstate Treaty on Gambling was passed in 2012 but still tweaks to law are being made and coming into force July 2021.

As with most places the slowness to adapt to the online gambling industry meant that it was easier to operate an online gambling site than a real one. Nevertheless Germany has casinos in most every decent sized town.
