They want rehabilitation in the spa building in Zábrdovice. City Hall is unlucky
The interiors of the former spa in Zábrdovice in Brno are to be returned to their original purpose. The creation of a rehabilitation center is at stake. Until now, people have mainly had an outdoor area, which they use as a swimming pool in the summer.

City officials have recently had a technical study and proposal for the use of a listed building marked as a winter spa. “The building has a rehabilitation-wellness character, so we would like to move the rehabilitation center there from the Zahradníkova polyclinic, which could be a significant expansion of existing services,” said the mayor’s deputy Petr Hladík.
Children’s rehabilitation, which is currently located at the White House polyclinic, can also be moved to the former spa. “The center would offer a wide range of rehabilitation programs, including balneotherapy. But we are also counting on building a multifunctional hall, medical and technical facilities and spaces for additional services, such as hairdressing or pedicure, “said Hladík.
Relocation of Brno City Halls? In the end, only in Židenice, Brno-sever is on the ice
The spa building has monument protection, which prevents significant construction interventions. Representatives of Židenice, a building located in the area, have been thinking in recent years that there would be a new town hall. “The building would become our headquarters. It is easily accessible. You are next to the train and the chalin, “remarked the local deputy mayor Petr Kunc. The intention to rehabilitate the idea of relocation is definitely falling.
The solution for Židenická can be the purchase of two floors in the existing building in Gajdošová Street, where the town hall is located. For some premises, the rent is about 1.8 million crowns. The second option is to build a completely new town hall in the changing area of Nová Zbrojovka. But it would have worse accessibility than in the case of the former spa.
The building can be destroyed
According to Kunc, the plan for a rehabilitation center will require huge investments and subsequent operating costs. “Getting the necessary technology to the facility will not be easy. The whole building will take place with the intention can destroy, “said Kunc.
The real costs of construction and operation and other matters are to be specified by detailed studies, which the city officials will have prepared next year. They will also order the preparation of the necessary documentation for the construction permit. “Currently, we have a construction and technical survey, which showed that the plan may be there. The building is in perfect condition, “Hladík.

The next steps will be based on the conclusions of detailed studies and decisions of city officials. According to the preliminary plan, construction can begin in 2024. The trial operation will then start in the summer of 2026.
Part of the reuse of the building is also the construction of the museum of the famous Brno architect Bohuslav Fuchs, who does not yet have a permanent exhibition in the city representing his work. It also includes the building of the former spa, which was built at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s. By creating a rehabilitation center, it would regain its original purpose.
