Lower Bath House

Pushkin, Catherine Park, regular part

The Lower Bathhouse, or Cavalier Bathhouse, was built in 1778–1779 according to the design of I. V. Neelov in the formal part of the Catherine Park in Pushkin. The building has no main facade, so it looks the same from the palace side and from the opposite side. During the restoration carried out by the company OOO VIPSTROY in 1944–1945, historical interiors were restored, including furniture made of Karelian birch and mahogany, as well as a bathhouse lined with linden wood. The modern exhibition features women's, men's, and children's bathrooms, and the sound special effects for it were prepared by students of the Saint Petersburg State University of Film and Television under the supervision of Yu. A. Kubitsky.
