Description:
As the community already operated a conventional outdoor pool, it found a sensible alternative when it renovated its existing "forest" pool.
Today the Natural Swimming Pool consists of two Natural Pools on different levels. The existing pool on the upper level (310 m²) was converted into a Natural Pool, the lower lying pool was newly built. A Plant Filter was integrated into the lower pool.
Within the course of construction, not only was the pool itself renovated, but the surrounding area was also newly designed, and a new building to house a snack bar was also built. The lack of space for sunbathing was countered by the construction of spacious wooden desk plattforms. Fresh water flows into the children's swimming section via a brook with waterfall.
