The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Construit en 1926 par les architectes Chanet et Liogier, cet édifice constitue un des rares exemples en France de casino de style Art Déco. Malheureusement amoindri par la reconstruction de sa façade après la guerre, il a cependant conservé sa salle de spectacle et un escalier orné de vitraux de F. Chigot représentant la Comédie, la Tragédie et la Musique. Le petit casino a été transformé en centre culturel en 1965.

History
Built in 1926 by the architects Chanet and Liogier, this building constitutes one of the rare examples in France of a casino in Art Deco style. Unfortunately diminished by the reconstruction of its façade after the war, it has nevertheless retained its performance hall and a staircase adorned with stained glass by F. Chigot representing Comedy, Tragedy and Music. The small casino was converted into a cultural centre in 1965.
