Ensemble sportif judaïque, Bordeaux

Ensemble sportif judaïque, Bordeaux, Art Deco sports complex in Bordeaux, France.

The Ensemble sportif judaïque is an Art Deco swimming complex at 164-166 rue Judaïque, built between 1931 and 1935 by architect Louis Madeline. Its pale stone facade curves in a gentle arc, with five round-headed arches closed by iron gates with spear finials, smooth columns with carved capitals, and a long entablature with dentil mouldings. A triangular pediment carved with reclining and standing figures crowns it, and a circular medallion by Maurice Pico showing Neptune riding a seahorse sits at the centre of the main facade.

Built between 1931 and 1935 to designs by architect Louis Madeline, the pool was part of Mayor Adrien Marquet's urban renewal plan, the plan Marquet, which gave Bordeaux several Art Deco public facilities. The complex was listed as a monument historique on 26 July 1996; its entrance portico, moved here in 1856 by Charles Burguet, had been listed since 19 October 1928. In 2012 it was renamed piscine judaïque Jean-Boiteux after the Olympic champion.

The name refers to rue Judaïque, not to a Jewish community; the pool is a municipal facility open to all. Since 2012 it has been named after Jean Boiteux, the Bordeaux-based Olympic champion who swam here for over fifty years, and the Grand Prix Jean-Boiteux is organised by Girondins de Bordeaux Natation.

The complex stands at 164-166 rue Judaïque, entered through the portico of the former equestrian school, moved here in 1856. A glazed hall added in 2001 fronts the facade, and the summer basin was reworked in the same programme. Look for the Neptune medallion carved in cement concrete by Maurice Pico at the centre of the main facade.

The pool's name honours Jean Boiteux, the Bordeaux-based Olympic champion who swam in the city's pools for over fifty years; it was renamed during the 35th Grand Prix Jean-Boiteux in 2012, organised by Girondins de Bordeaux Natation.
