Renovated public bath house from 1903 with 4 modern swimming pools & a large gym. The opening times are long, so that people can go there before and/or after work. It is less full during working hours. The largest pool is the best feature with its high high ceiling. It also has an unusual length of 31,5 meters. The most beautiful part is the outside though, which is of red bricks covered in some places with red ornamentation and golden lettering
