Bathhouse of Chervonozavodsky district
This bathhouse was named after the street - Korsakivska bathhouse (and later bath №3). It was designed by the architect V. Bogomolov (in collaboration with G. Tolokonnikov). The merits of this modest utility in the development of the Kharkiv sports movement, and swimming in particular swimming, are difficult to overestimate: for many years the pool, located in the bathhouse, remained the only place in the city where swimmers, divers, and even water polo players, could be trained. However, two photographs from the Universe magazine in 1927 are evidence that not only athletes but also ordinary people could swim there. During World War II, the building of the bathhouse was damaged though in 1945 it opened its doors for citizens again. It's hard to believe now, but at that time it was only the sixth indoor pool in the USSR. The bathhouse pool on Moscow Avenue was used by the swimming department of the Kharkiv Regional Council "Dynamo" was launched. Once again, swimmers, divers, and water polo players trained together, and sometimes at the same time. Georgy Nikolsky
