Overview
- The municipality has enacted a temporary ban from July 4 to August 31 allowing only Swiss citizens, settlement or work-permit holders and hotel or campsite guests.
- The council said extreme heat and high attendance had strained security, prompting the measure to protect swimmers and maintain order.
- More than 20 people, predominantly French nationals, received individual bans this season for misconduct ranging from verbal harassment to violent behavior.
- Officials describe the restriction as an extraordinary, time-limited action and are tracking attendance and incident reports to evaluate an early repeal.
- The pool’s 900–1,000 capacity has been under extra pressure since the nearby French facility in Delle closed for renovations.
