Overview
- Multiple operators are closing open-air pools around the August–September turn, with some sites ending the season as early as this week.
- Chemnitz confirmed a one-week extension, keeping the Gablenz and Bernsdorf pools open through Sunday, September 7, due to favorable forecasts.
- Dresden keeps some facilities open until mid-September and others until September 7, and Leipzig runs to September 7 with only limited scope for further extension.
- Several pools posted firm end dates at month’s end, including Voerde on August 31, Ludwigshafen at the end of August, and Plauen’s Preißelpöhl on August 28, partly for scheduled works in September.
- Some municipalities are tying closure timing to weather, with Hamm leaving a later shutdown possible and cities like Munich and Frankfurt adjusting by location and temperature thresholds.
