Felsenau swimming pool
The Felsenau swimming pool in the Frastanz district of Fellengatter is the oldest open-air swimming pool in Vorarlberg and has existed since 1903. The buildings of the open-air swimming pool are listed .
history
After a long planning period with a search for a location, the swimming pool was opened on July 23, 1903, after a construction period of two and a half months. The local construction companies Caspar Hilty and Seraphim Pümpel, as well as the Keck company responsible for the water installations, built a pool of 32 × 30 m with a depth of 0.5 to 3 m, 37 cabins and other sanitary facilities. Bathing was done separately according to sex. This regulation was not lifted until 1938. A closure was envisaged in the late 1970s due to emerging competition, but was averted by renovations in 1982 (including pseudoscientific " water revitalization ") and 1991 (water heating by solar energy ).
Furnishing
The pool has a 33 × 30 m swimming pool with a non-swimmer area and a diving board. There is a child-friendly slide in the children's pool . In the swimming pool, numerous display boards remind of the long history of the bath.
