Kozhevnicheskiye Baths

Kozhevnicheskiye Baths is a bathhouse building in the Zamoskvorechye District with characteristic ceramic panels on its exterior. The structure displays 1930s architecture with functional forms and decorative elements, and now houses an entertainment center offering spa treatments, bowling, dining, and other services.

The building was constructed in 1931 as part of Moscow's major urban development project and was connected to new transportation routes. It represented Soviet modernization of daily life through contemporary public facilities.

The majolica panels on the walls show scenes from Soviet daily life and what mattered to people at that time. Visitors can still see how these images portrayed the baths as a place for community life.

The location is best explored on foot and has various areas for different activities that are easy to navigate. Visitors should allow enough time to enjoy both the architecture and the current offerings of the center.

The largest ceramic panels on the facade share artistic similarities with known works found on other Moscow buildings from the same period. This connection shows how artistic ideas were shared and repeated across Soviet architecture of that era.
