The swimming pools of Brussels: all you need to know!

Want to Nager ? In Brussels, one swimming pool is not the other. There are swimming pools open the Sundays to occupy your weekend, the pools Art Deco, swimming pools with slides for activities with children and some don't. It is also possible in some swimming pools to go without swimming cap. Perhaps this option does not delight you. We have tested for you the swimming pools of Brussels

1. A swimming pool that dates back to 1949: Les Bains du Center de Bruxelles

The center's baths were created in 1949. Before the river that crosses Brussels was polluted by industries and then, in Brussels we bathed in the Senne! In the course of the 20th century, XNUMXth century, public baths with bathtubs and shower baths dedicated to hygienist purposes came into being. These bathing establishments remain in the municipalities of Ixelles and Saint-Gilles. Although these baths were once associated with " baths showers“, they are indeed today of simple swimming pools. No slide.

2. Swimming pool in Brussels without a Cap: Aspria

A magnificent and spacious place to play sports, go to the swimming pool and relax Near Arts-Loi. The staff is very very professional and always there to do you good. Ideal, right in the center of Brussels, in short this is the dream. However, the dream has a price… We will say that there is the basic fit of the poor and that of the rich in Aspria. It takes at Arts-loi almost more than 100 euros per month. For subscription. However if you combine pool and gym, this could be a good compromise. The cap is not mandatory in the pool Rue de l'Industrie 26 1040 Brussels Belgium
