Chemnitz city pool celebrates its 85th birthday
Advance notice of the anniversary event on 8 November
To mark the 85th anniversary of the Chemnitz municipal swimming pool, a big birthday party for the whole family will be held on Sunday, 8 November 2020 under the motto "Dive in and have fun" - naturally in compliance with the Corona Protection Ordinance and the corresponding hygiene measures in force at the time.
One of the best-known and most striking buildings in the city is celebrating its 85th birthday this year. And you can hardly see it. The pioneering architecture, the perfect interplay of form and function still makes the Chemnitz municipal swimming pool appear timelessly modern and contemporary today. It has not succumbed to fast-moving fashion, but has retained its unobtrusive charm over the decades. Reason enough for the city to celebrate this anniversary in style. The big birthday party will include a programme for the whole family - for old and young, for sports enthusiasts and the curious.
The joy of sporting activity is to be experienced in a variety of ways. The municipal swimming pool, which has been a key element of the city's sporting life since its opening, will also honour this aspect on its anniversary day. Chemnitz residents of all ages will be able to celebrate their city pool and discover the many possibilities offered by this municipal facility. And as the Chemnitz municipal swimming pool is not only an architectural landmark of the city, but also a symbol of sporting activity, motivation and competition, a very special competition will be held in the rooms and halls of the pool on this day. More details are yet to be revealed.
