Piscine Josephine Baker - floating swimming pool

The Piscine Josephine Baker is a swimming pool barge that is situated on the bank of the River Seine and was named after the actress and French resistance heroine, who became the first American-born woman to receive the highest French military honour called the Croix de Guerre.

The Piscine Josephine Baker was completed in 2006 ready for the Paris Plage and it is the city's first new pool since 1992.
