Powered by an underground wood-fired fireplace , a network of brick pipes was used to heat the water in the basins. To prevent condensation from bothering swimmers, gutter systems have been designed so that the drops trickle down to the ground. Cold, warm or hot baths are spread over two rooms and give their visitors the desire for a good moment of relaxation!
