Natatorium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Graham S. Little Natatorium, otherwise known as Olney Indoor Swim Center, in Olney, Maryland.
A natatorium is a building containing a swimming pool.[1] In Latin, a cella natatoria was a swimming pool in its own building, although it is sometimes also used to refer to any indoor pool even if not housed in a dedicated building (e.g., a pool in a school or a fitness club).[2] It will usually also house locker rooms, and perhaps allied activities, such as a diving tank or facilities for water polo. Many colleges, universities and high schools have natatoria.
