How to prepare for a visit
Documents and age: grab an identity card (in most houses - from 18 years old).
Dress code: from "smart casual" to cocktail - historical casinos (Baden-Baden, Wiesbaden) are stricter to style.
Clocks and tables: Classic games often start in the evening; check the site in advance (poker - on schedule/reservation).
Responsible play: set personal time/budget limits, take breaks; for signs of loss of control - contact the assistance services (operators are required to provide contacts).
Sampling procedure (short)
We assessed historical heritage and architecture (Baden-Baden, Wiesbaden), scale and modern stack (Berlin, Hohensiburg, Stuttgart), resort context (Konstanz) and regional representation (Hamburg, Hanover, Bremen; Saxon network). The final list is a guide for the traveler: when planning, check events and live tables on the official pages of the casino.
