The Victoria Baths were opened in 1906 and designed by Henry Price, Manchester’s first City Architect…and no expense was spared! The building is gorgeous! The building provided both essential and leisure facilities for 86 years, housing private baths and laundry amenities. There were 3 swimming pools, Turkish baths, and the building even housed the first Jacuzzi in the country. Since the building closed in 1993 it has fallen into disrepair, and is now featured on BBC2’s Restoration series. The building is open for tours and it really is incredible, and in pretty amazing shape, all things considered.
