Like the lidos of London and the piscines of Paris, Berlin’s bäder come to life in the summer months.
The city has a rich cache of Victorian and early 20th-century swimming pools that survived the onset of WWII. Many have been restored to their former glory – with Veauthier Meyer Architects becoming the go-to practice for such revival acts – while others have taken on new life as restaurants and spas.
Here, we do a lap of everything from Art Nouveau swimming halls to a domed spa with an underwater sound system.
