The Stadtcasino Basel dates to 1824, when it first opened, but its current facilities come from later: the 1876 Musiksaal, the Hans Huber Hall from 1905 and the Casino completed in 1939. Herzog & de Meuron, commissioned in 2012, restored and extended the two pieces "in the same neo-Baroque architectural tradition" of the 19th-century original designed by Johann Jakob Stehlin. The Musiksaal, home to the Basel Symphony Orchestra and a Swiss landmark, reopened in 2020.
