#### Historia de una bañera pública ##### Algunos episodios de la historia de este balneario Este balneario, que recibió su nombre de la calle donde se ubicaba: la Bañera Korssakovskaya (más tarde denominada Balneario N.º 3), fue construido a mediados de los años 20 del siglo XX según el proyecto de graduación del egreso del Instituto de Arte de Jarkiv, el arquitecto V. I. Bogomolov (con la participación de G. D. Tolokonnikov). El papel y las contribuciones de esta sencilla institución pública en el desarrollo del movimiento deportivo de Jarkiv, en particular en la natación, son indescribable: durante muchos años, su innovador piscina fue el único lugar en la ciudad donde nadadores, saltadores y incluso waterpolistas podían perfeccionar sus habilidades en invierno. De hecho, dos fotografías publicadas en la revista “Vsesvit” en 1927 demostran que no solo profesionales could make use of this facility. Durante the war, although the building was damaged to some extent, the pool resumed operations in 1945. It is hard to believe today, but at that time it was only the sixth closed swimming pool in the USSR. The “Dinamo” swimming club of the Jarkiv Regional Council operated there, and both swimmers and divers practiced simultaneously due to time constraints. During training sessions, swimmers would swim along the edges of the pool while the divers performed their exercises. At the end of the session, the lanes would be cleared, the gates closed, and waterpolists would have 15–20 minutes to use the pool with the ball. The city’s winter swimming championships were also held in this pool. The ceremonial opening ceremony of one such championship in the 1950s is depicted in a photograph. Other times came, and the ownership of the building changed, which resulted in changes to both its exterior appearance and interior facilities. Today, it is called the “Coliseo” recreation center. It is hard to imagine that events similar to those depicted in the above photographs could ever take place there again.
