The casino of San Pellegrino Terme
The San Pellegrino Terme Casino, which opened on July 20, 1907, was designed by the Milanese architect Romolo Squadrelli and engineer Luigi Mazzocchi. Built in only twenty months, it is considered one of the greatest expressions of the Art Nouveau style in architecture, known throughout Europe. The opulence and elegance of the structure can already be admired from the outside. The façade is at once graceful and rich in stucco, bas-reliefs, and glass and wrought-iron elements of extraordinary workmanship. Each decoration is designed in detail to fit harmoniously with other elements while communicating the spirit of the time.
Each decoration refers to “Joie de Vivre” through the use of mythological elements juxtaposed with the theme of nature. Thus, one can admire fauns, sylenes, telamons, centaurs, nymphs and other mythological characters. Special attention is placed, not surprisingly, on the theme of water, to which San Pellegrino owes all its fortune. Imposing is the grand staircase leading to the upper floor, on which there is a magnificent view of friezes, high reliefs, stucco, chandeliers, frescoes, and stained glass windows. Everything is designed to leave even the most discerning guest speechless.
Used for about ten years as a casino and subsequently for various types of shows and entertainment, it now houses the reception and buffet area of QC Terme, as well as the guided tours organized by our company. During the guided tours, which take place on the first Thursday of the month at 9:30 a.m., visitors can admire the building’s full splendor while enjoying an evocative historical and artistic account of the building and the spa town during the Belle Époque.
