Havel-Therme Tightens Entry Rules After Harassment Reports

The operator says the stricter access policy follows repeated incidents to restore a family-friendly setting.

Overview

  • The spa in Werder, Brandenburg, is enforcing a 20% gender-ratio cap that triggers temporary entry stops once reached.
  • Groups of three or more must email a registration at least two days in advance, with families exempt from the requirement.
  • Online tickets do not guarantee entry for groups without prior confirmation under the new policy.
  • A private security service is in place, and management reports many women now feel safer at the facility.
  • The operator says the measures were coordinated with police as public discussion continues over fairness, legality, and effectiveness.
