Spring Hill Baths, Heritage swimming pool in Spring Hill, Brisbane, Australia.

The Spring Hill Baths features a two-story brick building containing a 23.5-meter indoor pool surrounded by 57 original Victorian-era changing rooms.

Constructed in 1886 at a cost of £2,526, the facility stands as Brisbane's first in-ground public swimming pool, replacing previous floating baths in Brisbane River.

The pool marked social progress in 1927 by becoming one of the first swimming facilities in Australia to allow mixed-gender bathing sessions.

The facility maintains regular hours from Monday through Sunday, offering swimming lessons, aqua aerobics classes, and separate pricing for adults, children, and families.

The building incorporates a daily water system that originally pumped water from Petrie Bight through Spring Hill, enabling natural pool cleaning through gravity flow.
