Piscine de Firminy-Vert, Modernist municipal swimming pool in Firminy, France
The aquatic complex features a 25-meter pool with six lanes, a diving pit, and a recreational area for various water activities.
The pool, opened in 1969, was designed by André Wogenscky, a collaborator of Le Corbusier, who had planned an aquatic facility for this location.
The building stands as a prime example of French modern architecture and received protected historical monument status in 2005.
The facility offers swimming lessons, aqua aerobics, aqua cycling, and includes a wellness area with sauna, steam room, and fitness equipment.
The structure incorporates architectural elements typical of Le Corbusier's style, particularly in its geometric shapes and raw concrete construction.
