Melbourne City Bathhouse Historical Lie!
Показать описание
Here is some more historic bullshit fresh from wikipedia and all things academic!!! History is a lie and we did not build this. Nor did some scruffy convicts (who didnt even exist) or some poor peasants or anyone calling themselves british or australian. This is old realm.
Melbourne City Council opened the first City Baths on 9 January 1860,[2] which housed public baths (3 years after the opening of the London Baths). The objective was to stop people from bathing in the Yarra River, which by the 1850s had become quite polluted and the cause of an epidemic of typhoid fever, which hit the city resulting in many deaths.[3] However, people continued to swim and drink the water. The baths were leased to a private operator, but lack of maintenance resulted in such deterioration of the building that the Baths were closed in 1899.
After a design competition was won by John James Clark working in partnership with his son, E. J. Clark, construction of a new building started in 1903,[1] and the bath was opened on 23 March 1904. Strict separation of men and women was maintained, with separate pools (the larger 30m [100 ft] pool was for men), and separate street entrances. Two classes of facilities were provided, with second class cubicles containing "slipper baths" (where one end is raised and sloped creating a more comfortable lounging position) on ground level, and "first class baths" on the main floor and a mikvah and turkish baths. The popularity of the swimming pool increased with the introduction of mixed bathing in 1947, and it became the venue for swimming competitions.[3]
