Historical Places Information 1. Monte Carlo Casino’s Building Officially named "Casino de Monte-Carlo", the Monte Carlo Casino is a gambling and entertainment complex located in Monaco. It includes a casino, the Grand Théâtre de Monte Carlo, and the office of Les Ballets de Monte Carlo. The Casino de Monte-Carlo is owned and operated by the Société des bains de mer de Monaco, a public company in which the Monaco government and the ruling family have a majority interest. The company also owns the principal hotels, sports clubs, foodservice establishments, and nightclubs throughout Monaco. The idea of opening a gambling casino in Monaco belongs to Princess Caroline, a shrewd, business-minded spouse of Prince Florestan I. Revenues from the proposed venture were supposed to save the House of Grimaldi from bankruptcy. The ruling family's persistent financial problems became especially acute after the loss of tax revenue from two breakaway towns, Menton and Roquebrune, which declared independence from Monaco in 1848 and refused to pay taxes on olive oil and fruit imposed by the Grimaldis.

FOCUS Monaco Heads Towards New explorations! Last April, H.S.H. Prince Albert II announced the launch of the MONACO EXPLORATION PROJECT, thus reviving the long tradition of missions carried out in the four corners of the planet with the purpose of advancing science, extending knowledge, and thus contributing to shaping a sustainable future. This project fits perfectly with the policy of ocean conservation carried out by the Principality… 4 The goal of this new journey? To reconcile humanity and the sea This is a major challenge which ten international scientists have taken up for this offshore survey campaign, which will last from 2017 to 2020. Some 120 years after the great maritime expeditions led by his great- great-grandfather Prince Albert I in the last century, it is with great emotion that H.S.H. Prince Albert II signaled the start of this oceanographic campaign around the world. Retracing the footsteps of his ancestor will make it possible to compare past and present data on marine and coastal ecosystems in order to determine their health. Another key challenge will be to raise public awareness, not just of these studies, but also of the threats that face the oceans today.

Summer Will Taste of Italy at Hôtel De Paris Monte-Carlo with the Return of Andrea Berton from 6 July to 22 August 2021
PRESSE RELEASE Monaco, June 11th 2021 Summer will taste of Italy at Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo with the return of Andrea Berton from 6 July to 22 August 2021. Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer is pursuing its year of gastronomy to the delight of its guests. After the launch of the restaurant Yannick Alléno à l’Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo, the launch of the Festival des Etoilés Monte-Carlo and the arrival of new chef Manon Fleury at Elsa at Monte-Carlo Beach, the time has come for Hôtel de Paris Monte- Carlo to create an event. After the success of the 1st pop-up launched with Andrea Berton for the end of year celebrations in 2020, the Italian Michelin-starred chef is returning to Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo to offer the best of his cuisine, from 6 July to 22 August 2021. An ephemeral restaurant signed Andrea Berton, at Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo from 6 July to 22 August 2021 Chef Andrea Berton returns to Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo for the summer with a new pop-up restaurant. Building on the success of his very first collaboration with the palace hotel in Monaco in December 2020, Andrea Berton is repeating the experience. This is a sort of return to his roots for the chef, acclaimed by the Italian world of high- class gastronomy (two time Michelin star winner, three Gambero Rosso forks…), who learned his art in Milan, Florence and London, and in Monaco under Alain Ducasse at Louis XV. This new experience is not to be missed under any circumstances, enjoyed indoors amid the décor designed by Pierre-Yves Rochon, in which lacquered wood and taut leather blend harmoniously, or looking out to sea from the recently re-landscaped terrace garden of Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo.
