The Holton Bath House is a bathhouse in Holton in Jackson County, Kansas which was built in 1938 as a WPA project. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]

The listing includes two contributing buildings: the bath house and a filter house. It includes the pool as a non-contributing structure because the original Depression-era pool was replaced in 1986. Bob Paulette and Murray Wilson were design engineers for the project.[2]

The bath house is Rustic in style and is 132 by 20 feet (40.2 m × 6.1 m) in plan. It is built of steel and reinforced concrete on a concrete foundation.[2]
