Sutro Baths

The Sutro Baths were a large public swimming complex in San Francisco, built in the late 1800s by inventor Adolph Sutro. It featured multiple indoor and outdoor pools, including saltwater and freshwater options, facilities for bathing, swimming, and socializing. The baths also had saunas, a restaurant, and observation decks, making it a popular entertainment and recreation spot. Closed in 1966 due to fire damage and changing leisure trends, the site now serves as historical ruins, offering visitors a glimpse into the innovative leisure complexes of the past and stunning views of the coastline.
