Victoria Baths

Victoria Baths is a true water palace, a jewel of Edwardian architecture in the heart of Manchester. Once described as 'the finest municipal bathing institution in the country,' this 1906 landmark is resplendent with rich detailing - mosaics, stained glass windows and terracotta ornamentation.

Today, although the pools are empty, the building bustles with life as a unique cultural space. It hosts art exhibitions, craft fairs and even dance parties. Take a guided tour to discover the fascinating history of this place, which has been the heart of the local community for 87 years.
