Two separate sections on one ticket, every day: Moenia is the nude area, where "bathing clothing is strictly forbidden"; Curia is the swimwear area, where swimwear is compulsory. The operator says the two sections and their terraces are completely separate; only the changing area is shared, with a private cubicle in every row of lockers. Men in the swimwear area wear short, fitted trunks only (no loose or long shorts); women wear a swimsuit or bikini. Sit on a full body-length towel in the saunas. Mixed throughout; no single-sex sessions published.10+Day ticket
