Take a deep breath, make a dive and swim in the trails of Mark Spitz – on just the location where the outstanding swimmer of 1972 sank all his opponents. The American Superstar took seven Olympic Titles and crowned himself as the most successful athlete of the Games. After the Olympics the Swimming Hall has been the setting for the German Swimming Championships six times. Nowadays it is one of Munich’s most popular public pools. Compared to many other swimming baths the focus is not only on fun and leisure but also on the underlining of the sporty side. Many Munich based swimming clubs use the 50-meter-pool for training as well as competition. More than four decades after the Summer Games of 1972 the Olympic Swimming Hall still provides the best conditions for a peak performance.
Furthermore there is a jump basin with diving platforms in the range from one to ten meters, a relax area with sauna, a gym and many offers to get a wellness massage. In the summertime there is a sunbathing area outside, further attractions are a climbing wall, a trampoline setting and table tennis.
The Olympic Swimming Pool is one of the M-Pools of the SWM
