Restaurante Casino Kursaal San Sebastian
AN APPROXIMATION TO THE HISTORY OF THE KURSAAL
The Gran Kursaal was inaugurated on the 15th of August of 1921 and was, for the first quarter of the century, one of the most important architectural works of the city.

Three years later, in the midnight of the 31st of October 1924, on the height of Primo de Rivera’s dictatorship, the prohibition of gambling was ordered and the casino closed its doors.

The site, a pending subject during two decades, became municipal property. It was a unique occasion for providing the city, through public promotion, with an Auditorium and Congress Centre.
In 1989 a Technical Enquiry was held for which six internationally well known architects were invited: Mario Botta, Norman Foster, Arata Isozaki, Rafael Moneo, Juan Navarro Baldeweg and Luis Peña Ganchegui.
