“One of the loveliest outdoor pools in the Würzburg region is right here.” This is Geisbergbad. It is located in Veitshöchheim. Let’s dive into the story of this amazing place.
Geisbergbad was built in 1968. Back then, it cost two million D-Mark. The buildings were designed starting in 1964. Bernhard Heid from Fürth was the architect. He designed a flat-roof building. It used rough concrete.
There was also a changing room building. It had an atrium-like courtyard. It was two stories high on the south side. A staircase led up. The caretaker’s house was connected to the west. Outside, there were swimming pools and a diving tower. The open area spanned 45000 square meters.
Between 2004 and 2007, Geisbergbad was completely renovated. The entrance building was rebuilt. This included changing rooms, toilets and a kiosk. The stainless-steel pools got overflow channels. This met the newest standards. At that time the building lost its listed status.
In peak times, the Geisbergbad could host over 9000 people. There is no official limit on admissions. The name “Geisbergbad” comes from the historical field name Geisberg.
Geisbergbad boasts a large water area. It measures 2000 square meters. There is a 50-meter sports pool for serious swimmers. A diving pool with 5m and 3m diving boards appeals to daredevils.
For less experienced swimmers, there is a non-swimmer pool. It features slides and a water mushroom. A 78-meter-long water slide has its own plunge pool. Children can enjoy the splash pool. A playground offers a play ship, tire swing and mud area.
Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the volleyball fields. There are two of them. Six table tennis tables and a bocce court are also available.
