Municipal Baths and Showers
17 and 18 September 2022Passed
The need to promote personal hygiene in a city or the possession of a toilet is then exceptional, will lead the municipality to order its architect Léon Guichetière, a building for use of public baths. The building, which began construction in 1925, opened to the public two years later. The exterior was modest but modern. Here we draw on the Art Deco repertoire. The geometric lines are softened by the use of motifs from the Egyptian repertoire. Composed of 16 showers and 6 baths, the bathroom is dominated by the blue mosaics commissioned by the artist Isidore Odorico.
