Lonely Planet review for Piscine Victor Boin
Belgium isn't much of a swimming nation but those interested in unusual pools might want a dip at Piscine Victor Boin in St Gilles. This covered Art Deco pool has a bain turc (Turkish bath) at the rear, which is reserved for women on Tuesday and Friday; it's reserved for men Monday, Thursday and Saturday. A single pool ticket costs around €2.

A fine old-fashioned swimming pool.
fnurr recommends this,
This isn't the place to go if you want waterslides, but it is a fine example of early twentieth century public architecture with a relaxing ambience. The staff are friendly enough.
The Turkish baths are currently (March 2012) out of action and have been for some time. Work will start on renovating them in the near future.
