The university swimming pool in Leipzig is a sports swimming pool that was opened in 1971. Unlike the other swimming pools in Leipzig, it is not operated by Sportbäder Leipzig GmbH, but by the Sports Science Faculty of the University of Leipzig .

The swimming pool consists of a 50-meter swimming pool with 8 lanes, a grandstand for up to 300 spectators, a teaching pool, a separate 15 m × 12.5 m diving pool with a 10 m, 7.5 m and 5 m Diving tower and a 1 m, 2 m and 3 m board jumping facility and a flow channel.

The swimming pool is not available to the general public and is only used for research and teaching, club and health sports as well as training and competitions.

Structural matters

The indoor swimming pool has a similar architecture to the indoor swimming pools in Dresden ( Freiberger Platz ) and Potsdam ( Brauhausberg ).

Comprehensive renovation work was completed in 2009.
