2287. Budapest, Palatinus Strand

 

Dear David,

The Palatinus Open Air Swimming Pool Complex in 

Budapest is a masterpiece of the Bauhaus style built

in 1937. The most striking feature is the spiral 

staircases, one of them featured partially in this 

postcard picture, that provide access to the pools 

from the above level.

Cheers,

R

Dear David,

A Hungarian masterpiece of the Bauhaus movement is
the Palatinus Open Air Swimming Pool in Budapest.
A Simple but sophisticated building complex. One of its
most striking architectural features is the spiral staircase
that provides access to the pools. Its shape shows clearly
its function.

Cheers.
