As Europe continues to be hit by a heatwave’s that due to reach Slovenia this weekend, it seems like a good time to go through the archives and bring back some old photos of people cooling off in the summer. 

As a supplement to our earlier post, The Swimming Pools on Maribor Island, and an excuse to promote Naturism: A Way to Improve Croatia-Slovenia Relations (which includes Tito, naked), we thus present some images from the late 1950s and early 60s, by Jože Gal, Danilo Škofič, Dragiša Modrinjak, and unknown others. All photos were sourced from Wikimedia, and are now in the public domain.
