The history of the Venice Casino
The impressive building that houses the Venice Casino is actually one of the most magnificent palaces facing the Grand Canal.
It was designed in the late 15th century by Mauro Codussi, upon a Loredan family’s request, and its construction began in 1481 and ended in 1509. Unfortunately the Loredan’s had to sell the palace in 1581 and in 1589 it was bought by Vettor Calergi, who was about to marry Isabella Gritti. The newlywed couple only had a daughter, Marina, who married Vincenzo Grimani. The new owners of the Ca’ Vendramin Calergi decided to enlarge the right wind of the building, covering part of the garden.
The three sons of Marina and Vincenzo had such a bad attitude that they killed Francesco Querini Stampalia.
The Serenissima government discovered the murder and banish the three brothers from Venice.

A curiosity about the Venice Casino
On the main facade, the one on the Grand Canal, you may notice a weird writing: Non nobis Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam (Not unto us, not unto us O Lord, but unto thy name let the glory be given). This latin writing is often associated with the Templars, since it was the beginning part of a psalm that was used as a prayer of thanksgiving and expression of humility, during the Crusades.
