Copenhagen's public swimming halls

Map of 4 locations in Copenhagen, Denmark

Copenhagen's harbour baths get all the attention, but they are a summer proposition; the city's indoor halls are what carries the other nine months, and they are run as one municipal system under SvømKBH with a shared ticketing and a published list of what is actually in each building. The useful distinctions between them are pool length, whether there is a springboard tower, and whether there is a sauna, so those are the facts recorded here alongside operator and current renovation status.
