Baños Orientales, Public bath at Barceloneta Beach, Barcelona, Spain.

The rectangular structure stood along the Mediterranean coastline, featuring an 18-meter diameter pool and traditional bathing facilities for visitors.

Established in 1872 by architect August Font i Carreras, the bath became a key destination for Barcelona residents seeking seaside recreation.

The establishment operated as a women-only facility during the Franco era, providing a secure gathering space for female communities in Barcelona.

Located near Barceloneta Beach, the bath offered changing rooms, swimming areas, and social spaces until its demolition in November 1990.

Women organized protests against the demolition by chaining themselves to the building, highlighting its significance for female liberation.
