Willow Plunge was a privately-owned American swimming pool and recreational area in the middle Tennessee town of Franklin, near Nashville. The pool was in operation for over four decades during the mid 20th century.[1] When it opened in 1924 it was the largest concrete swimming pool in the South[2] and remained in operation until 1967.[1] It featured two adjoining pools that were fed by a local spring. Sanitation was accomplished by replacing the pool water with fresh spring water on a regular schedule. The business was profitable, even during the Great Depression (1929–1939). In the 1930s it became one of the most popular and best equipped swimming pools in the United States according to the Tennessean.[3][4] After 43 years in existence, the pool was closed in 1967 and a historical marker is all that remains.
