Victoria baths

This has turned out to be yet another great day for Victoria Baths. There is a lovely feeling of warmth and friendliness among the people in the building. Once again the building is alive this time with a multicultural atmosphere, drum beating and African dancing. We are very proud to welcome everyone.

This is such a beautiful building. Its a shame its not used as a swimming bath. The friends of Victoria Baths are doing everything they can to open the building.

Its open for tours on the first Sunday in the month from 12-4pm.

Victoria Baths is remarkable, in fact its a unique place. Lots of exhibitions. Right now there is a gorgeous dressed African lady showing us how they sweep the floor in Africa. Every effort must be made to save Victoria Baths, which means so much to so many people.
