Bains pompéiens, Historic bathing establishment in Les Planches, Deauville, France
The Bains Pompéiens features 250 luxurious cabins arranged around courtyards and portico galleries, including shops, steam baths, and a café-bar.
Charles Adda won the architectural competition in September 1922 to design this establishment, which opened its doors on July 5, 1924.
The building represents the evolution of seaside leisure complexes in France during the 1920s, incorporating elements from Roman thermal baths.
Located at coordinates 49.36161, 0.06815 on Boulevard de la Mer, this heritage site maintains its original washbasins, bathtubs, and mosaic decorations.
The structure underwent expansion in 1928 due to its success and required extensive reconstruction work until 1960 following World War II requisition.
