Sutro Baths ruins at Lands End

The Sutro Baths were a large public saltwater bathing complex built by Adolph Sutro in 1896; the structure fell into disuse and the ruins burned in 1966. The remaining concrete ruins are visible from the Lands End trails and the Lands End Lookout visitor center and are often visited by people seeking a quieter historic site. The location is a prominent but secluded reminder of late 19th-century leisure architecture on San Francisco's western shore.
