From the history of the Mičurin swimming pool

The Ekoiuventa area, nicknamed Mičurin, has been a national cultural monument since 2016. It includes the Youth House, staircase, swimming pool, amphitheatre and multifunctional building. The socialist realism style buildings were built in the 1950s. Mičurin used to provide many leisure activities for children. Many still remember the years they spent here not only at the swimming pool, the only one in the Old Town, but also in the greenhouses, workshops and in the building of the former Youth House. The unique space with a rich history in a lucrative part of Bratislava near Slavín and Horský Park has been owned by the city since 2023 and has been operating again as a public swimming pool since the summer of 2024.
