ST. GEORGE'S POOL
A charming swimming pool, the oldest in Rennes, a living monument of Rennes heritage to discover.
A landmark of 1920s hygienism still in use today, this resplendent site is reminiscent of the spa resorts of the belle époque. Built in 1926 in the Art Deco style by Odorico, Rennes' emblematic mosaic artist, it is the oldest swimming pool in Rennes. Entirely lined with bluish tesserae, its 33 x 14 m pool and unchanged architecture (with the exception of the ceiling) give it a special, timeless beauty. A living monument to Rennes' heritage, to be visited even without dipping a toe in!

Note there is no parking for the pool, although I've found street parking easily in the past. There are several bus stops nearby and it's a very short walk from the Saint-Germain Metro station.
Unfortunately, Saint-Georges is often closed for long periods (the entire summer 2023, for example), and even when open the times change often, so check with the pool website before going - don't rely on the times posted by Google.
