Only surviving Kursaal
The article claims that this is the only surviving Kursaal in Britain, however Southend-on-Sea in Essex, has a Kursaal, which is still called a Kursaal, and still has the functions feature (all be it with a period of disuse for about 12 years in the 80s and 90s). See Kursaal (amusement park). OwainDavies (about)(talk) edited at 17:21, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Worthing has a surviving Kursaal building too, though no longer so named. It was opened in 1911, but because of anti-German feeling was renamed The Dome during the First World War. In 1921 it was converted into a cinema and is still in use as such. See [Dome Cinema, Worthing]. Bexhill also had a Kursaal, which was demolished in 1936. Gledders2 (talk) 15:42, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
