The popular open-air swim­ming pool in Cossebaude with its 45,000 square meters swim­ming area stret­ches along the wes­tern city limits of Dresden directly at a reser­voir. The spa­cious area with a won­derful, chestnut-fringed sun­bathing lawn invites you to sun­bathe and relax. In addi­tion to the 485 square meter non-swim­mer’s pool with water mush­room, a giant slide pro­vides lots of bathing fun. An extra paddling pool with 180 square meters of sur­face area lures the very young guests into the cool water. The faci­lity also offers a wide range of pos­si­bi­li­ties, among other things, visi­tors can try out various sports on the indi­vi­dual pit­ches. If you want, you can also have wind­sur­fing les­sons on the reservoir.

The snack bar ope­ra­tors are external ten­ants. They are respon­sible for their own ope­ning times, offe­rings and pricing.

In the bar­rier-free Bühlau swim­ming hall in the north-east of Dresden there is a 25-meter pool made of stain­less steel with six lanes. A smaller course pool with a lif­ting floor and a paddling pool for children enrich it as well as three dif­fe­rent saunas on the upper floor. Some­thing spe­cial is wai­ting for visi­tors on the first floor: not only health-con­scious people will get their money’s worth in an infrared cabin. The room with the heat-radia­ting seats is modelled on a his­to­rical streetcar. This is a reminder of the area’s his­toric past. The Bühlau indoor swim­ming pool is located on the site of an old streetcar station.

The popular family pool in the center of Dresden bor­ders directly on the Großer Garten. The visitor magnet has a spa­cious chan­ging and sani­tary area and is com­ple­tely bar­rier-free. Guests can swim in the 25-meter pool in the hall or in the 250 square meter adven­ture pool. Those who like it fast can climb the slide tower and go on a wild ride down through the tube from above. The slide is not only great fun because of the effect lighting, but at 86 meters it is also the lon­gest of its kind in Dresden. Several attrac­tions ensure that there is no time for boredom in the indoor swim­ming pool. For the little ones there is a sepa­rate paddling pool with a mini-slide. In the sauna land­scape “Swea­ting bet­ween Old Mas­ters”, guests can relax in the five themed saunas. Two restau­rants round off the offer in the Georg-Arn­hold-Bad. This pool looks back on a long history. Lar­gely paid for by the sports sponsor Georg Arn­hold, it was initi­ally built purely as an open-air pool until 1926. The indoor pool was only added in the 1990s, when the entire com­plex was trans­formed into an adven­ture pool.

The char­ming Waldbad in the former health resort of Langebrück is located on the edge of the local recrea­tion area Dresdner Heide. Family-fri­endly and natural, the out­door pool has a 4,000 square meter water sur­face and a sepa­rate water play­ground. In addi­tion, the little guests can whizz down a slope in a Flying Fox (cable car). The exten­sive bathing area is ideal for sporty active people. In addi­tion to a small soccer field, guests will find table tennis tables and a beach vol­ley­ball court. The well-kept faci­lity, which is inters­persed with trees and bushes, looks back on a history of more than 100 years and still pre­serves its idyllic cha­racter with con­stantly flowing forest spring water and many loving details.

Fin­nish sauna

The Fin­nish sauna is the classic. Proven for cen­tu­ries, it relies on drier heat. Here you sweat at a room tem­pe­ra­ture of up to 90 °C. The air humi­dity, on the other hand, is very low at 10 to 30 per­cent. Our sauna mas­ters pro­vide addi­tional sti­muli with infu­sions. Visit the Fin­nish sauna regu­larly, streng­then your immune system and train your heart and circulation!

Steam bath

With our steam bath we offer you a more gentle sauna variant. The tem­pe­ra­ture here is only 40 to 45 °C, but the air humi­dity rea­ches up to 100 per­cent. Many people find it much more plea­sant in a steam bath than in a classic sauna. On the one hand, the tem­pe­ra­ture is not as high, on the other hand, a steam bath has num­e­rous posi­tive effects on your health. If you have rheu­matic com­plaints or a cold, you will find the cli­mate par­ti­cu­larly plea­sant and rela­xing. Your skin and hair as well as your respi­ra­tory organs can also recover par­ti­cu­larly well under these con­di­tions. The steam bath also loo­sens cramped mus­cles and calms your nerves.

Sana­rium

If you don’t want to strain your cir­cu­la­tion too much, but want to relax more and feel good, our sana­rium is the right place for you. The tem­pe­ra­ture is com­pa­ra­tively low at 55 to 65 °C. The humi­dity rea­ches up to 55 per­cent and is the­r­e­fore rela­tively high. This creates a cli­mate that is par­ti­cu­larly gentle and low on irrit­ants. You can the­r­e­fore extend your sauna ses­sion in the sana­rium, whe­ther lying down or sit­ting down.

Infrared cabin

Do you have back pain or lum­bago? Does your scia­tica cause you pro­blems or do you have pain in your joints? Then you will find a visit to our infrared cabin par­ti­cu­larly plea­sant. Because of their deep warmth, infrared rays are used in the­rapy as well as in well­ness tre­at­ments. The radia­tion pene­trates the upper layers of your skin, trans­forms into warmth and then spreads throug­hout your body due to the increased blood cir­cu­la­tion. In addi­tion, your immune system will be streng­thened con­sider­ably in our infrared cabin.

The sauna is a non-smo­king area.

Garden house sauna

In one of the sauna gar­dens of the swim­ming com­plex there is an out­door sauna in garden house style. With a view of the land­scaped gar­dens, you can sweat in the sauna at drier tem­pe­ra­tures and up to 90 °C, just like in a Fin­nish sauna.

Ice foun­tain and rest

In addi­tion to various coo­ling showers typical of saunas, some­thing spe­cial is wai­ting for you after the sweat bath for shock-free­zing. Visi­tors lay fresh ice from a well directly on their skin — this makes for a ting­ling expe­ri­ence. Those who wish can also step into a plunge pool or boost their cir­cu­la­tion in foot basins. Out­side there is also a Kneipp course for bare­foot people. The guests rech­arge on the com­for­table loun­gers in the large rela­xa­tion room, where they can also read. The chic bar offers refres­hing drinks.

“Swea­ting bet­ween Alte Meister”

In the begin­ning there was an idea: We wanted to por­tray typical things from Dresden, the region and Saxony in a sauna land­scape. The result is unique: Our visi­tors can spend rela­xing hours in an extra­or­di­nary atmo­sphere around a glass atrium in five themed saunas, several coo­ling basins and res­ting cor­ners, while swea­ting bet­ween “Alte Meister”! How so? Dresden — the baroque pearl of Ger­many, which was also influenced by the Renais­sance, has a tre­asure trove of works by famous pain­ters from both epochs in its “Alte Meister” pic­ture gal­lery. Through a coope­ra­tion with the State Art Coll­ec­tions, we show sel­ected repro­duc­tions in our sauna landscape.

The Schwimmsport­komplex Frei­berger Platz is the lar­gest faci­lity for swim­ming and water jum­ping in Dresden. It offers state-of-the-art faci­li­ties right next to the city center. In two halls, club and recrea­tional ath­letes can swim their lanes daily in 50-meter pools with a water depth of two meters each. A variety of swim­ming and fit­ness courses com­ple­ment the offer, some of which are also held in the trai­ning pool with a slo­ping floor.

The out­door swim­ming pool in Prohlis in the south of Dresden has been com­ple­tely rede­si­gned and, tog­e­ther with the indoor swim­ming pool there, forms the Prohlis com­bined pool. In addi­tion to a 25-meter swim­ming pool, the out­door pool area includes an adven­ture pool and a bathing area for younger visi­tors. In addi­tion to a wide slide, guests can also use the two giant tube slides at the swim­ming pool. Num­e­rous sports options offer ever­y­thing you need for an active day at the out­door pool. Large sun­bathing areas and a higher sun ter­race also pro­vide plenty of oppor­tu­ni­ties to relax.
