Baños Orientales (original) (raw)
The Baños Orientales (English: Oriental Baths) in Barcelona, Spain were a popular lesbian meeting place during Francoist Spain. Opened, in 1872 in Barcelona, they were almost exclusively for women from the start. They closed in 1988, and were demolished in 1990. The baths were important for several reasons. First, they represented a safe place for lesbians who faced repression from Francoist Spain. They were also important for women in Barcelona in general, because the all-women space allowed women to wear clothing like bikinis or no clothing at all. The baths have been remembered at a feminist book fair and as part of an exhibition about women in Francoist Spain.

Estaban situados frente a la Playa de la Barceloneta y su estilo imitaba la arquitectura árabe. Cerraron en 1988 y fueron demolidos en 1990. Representaron un lugar seguro para las lesbianas que enfrentaron la represión de la España franquista. También fueron importantes para las mujeres de Barcelona en general, porque el espacio exclusivo para mujeres les permitía usar ropa de baño o nada de ropa, algo inaceptable en la época en las playas.
