Badebassinerne - Vonge, Danmark - Defunct Amusement Parks on Waymarking.com

Kun få hundrede meter fra Gudenåens udspring findes badebassinerne, et badeland fra 1930´erne. Det var Danmarks første badeland. Nu er der kun ruiner tilbage.
Det første bassin blev bygget i 1920 og var tænkt som vandingstrug til dyrene. Men hurtigt begyndt børn og tjenestefolk at bade i det. I 1938 blev der bygget flere bassiner, og senere samme år blev det officielt åbnet som badeland. Det kostede 25 øre at komme ind og der var plads til 400 mennesker.
Der kom også en karrusel og en vandrutchebane bygget af træ.
Området blev udvidet med en restaurant der solgte sodavand, kaffe og kage.
Man mener at badelandet lukkede mellem 1947-1950.



Only a few hundred meters from the origin of the Gudenåen are the swimming pools, a water park from the 1930s. It was Denmark's first water park. Now there are only ruins left.
The first basin was built in 1920 and was intended as an water trough for the animals. But soon children and servants began to bathe in it. In 1938, several basins were built, and later that year it was officially opened as a water park. There was room for 400 people.
There was also a carousel and a water slide built of wood.
The area was expanded with a restaurant selling sodas, coffee and cake.
It is believed that the water park closed between 1947-1950.
