the victorians would have a bath at least once a month if they were lucky
Victorians did not bathe as regularly as we do today because many people lived in poor conditions. Until the late Victorian period many people lived without running water to their homes. You would have to fetch your water from a well or a local pump. The only way of heating this water was then by fire, so you can imagine how much time and effort you would have to go through to have a bath. In Victorian times it was common practise to go to public bath houses, a bit like public swimming pools but you would go there to wash and to socialise. Males and females always bathed seperatly.
In the beginning of the Middle Ages, the Roman baths were still in use. As they fell into disrepair they were replaced with less elaborate bath houses. The custom of bathing in public bath houses was continued for the rest of the Middle Ages. In towns and villages that had bath houses, as most towns did, nearly all people bathed there. The bath houses had bath tubs made of wood, and these were lined up, close to each other. The wealthiest lords may have had their own private baths, but they were clearly not common. In the smaller villages and hamlets, where there were no public bath houses, people bathed in lakes, ponds, rivers and streams. In much of Europe, the people of the Middle Ages were very religious, and believed that cleanliness was next to godliness, so bathing was considered virtuous, and failing to bath was evidence of a vicious character.
