How lucky is Darmstadt to have this Art Nouveau swimming complex? Note that most of the pool areas…read moreare not that suitable for lap swimming, because the main pool has a rope across the middle between the shallow and deep sections, and the outdoor pool is mostly for families, and therefore gets a little too crowded.

A note for people traveling from abroad that this is a European style sauna, so it is coed and nude, but people are very respectful, and it was a very nice environment to relax either by yourself or with friends. A particular highlight was the outdoor sauna space and Terrace, which allows you to take in views of the city from an area of relative privacy. The pricing was very reasonable, and I would gladly come again!

The wave machine is an half-hourly fun-time, swim and sun-bathe outside, use the slides or diving boards too if you dare!

I went there several times with my son in the 80's and so convenient to go by bus. I checked it…read moreout (I miss Frankfurt) on the internet and WOW it still looks amazing . I miss a lot about Frankfurt. We had lots of German friends that helped us experience locations we would have never visited without them. Sadly 2 of our closest German friends (Heinz and Horst their first names) passed recently.
