Swimming in the middle of town? Did you know that between 1884 and 1933 you could bathe in a cold bathhouse at Norrström?
Strömbadet was the first cold bath house in Stockholm and was located on the water in front of the City Hall. There was one beautiful building, built in renaissance style and supposed to work for Stockholmers' health and swimming skills. School children, police officers and firefighters had free entry, for other visitors the entry was 35 öre. The swimming pool had a section for women, one for young guys and the largest, western pool for men who could swim. It is this department you see in the photograph. The Strömbadet was a venue for several major swimming competitions. In the picture you see a diving display sometime between the years 1900-1910. An impressive photograph by Axel Malmström showing men simultaneously doing various advanced swimming jumps. A man jumps with his back to us: an advanced jump that seems to be in spades. In the picture you also see an orchestra playing on the second plane.
What do you think, maybe it's time for a new Strömbad in Norrström? It would probably be a success pretty quickly!
