AaltoAlvari, Indoor swimming pool in Seminaarinmäki, Finland.

The AaltoAlvari building features curved lines and natural materials throughout its design, integrating harmoniously with the surrounding university landscape.

Architect Alvar Aalto completed this swimming facility in 1955 as part of his vision for the University of Jyväskylä campus development.

The structure represents Finnish architectural innovation through its combination of practical swimming facilities and educational spaces within the university grounds.

The swimming complex maintains regular operating hours and includes multiple pools for different activities, from lap swimming to water exercise programs.

Finnish law protects this architectural structure, preserving its original design elements as an example of mid-century Nordic public architecture.
