Title
Treibhaus Sauna
Subject
Sauna
Description
This sauna was primarily used by gay men. Amenities include “whirlpool, darkrooms, smoking lounge, Finnish sauna and private cabins” (Gaycities.com). Entry cost was between 15 and 22 euros per person. The advertisement in this magazine shows the entry hours, and a picture of a condom saying “extra stark” emphasizing the male presence that is at this sauna. This location is important to add to our list because of the inclusivity of gay men at this institution to show where people would connect and interact.
The images include a picture of the advertisement and a picture pulled from the yelp page of what an area of the sauna supposedly looked like.
