Tøyenbadet


Tøyenbadet in Oslo is Norway's busiest indoor swimming facility. Situated in Helgesens Gate 90, it was designed by architect Gert Walter Thuesen. It was built in 1976 and contains indoor and outdoor swimming pools. It was closed for refurbishment in spring 2007 and reopened in autumn 2008, six months later than planned. Within months of this refurbishment the facility was experiencing water leakage problems.
Due to persistent maintenance and structural problems, the facility closed in January 2020; it will be entirely torn down and rebuilt. Re-opening is expected in 2023.
