Outdoor Pool and Indoor Pool South: Please note the different hours of operation

The Department of Athletics would like to note that different opening hours will apply at the Hangeweiher Outdoor Pool and the Süd Indoor Swimming Pool over the next few days. This is due to staff shortages caused by illness, high summer temperatures, and an increased need for staff at the Hangeweiher Outdoor Pool and the Süd Indoor Swimming Pool.

The Hangeweiher outdoor pool will open on Sunday, July 12, at 9 a.m. and will remain open until 8:30 p.m., as usual. Swimmers should expect possible wait times depending on the situation.

The Süd Indoor Swimming Pool will be open during the week of July 13–17—that is, Monday through Friday—from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The ticket office closes at 5:15 p.m. each day.

Up-to-date information on the swimming pools and their hours
of operation:
The City of Aachen’s Department of Sports asks all swimmers to check the City of Aachen’s sports portal at www.aachen.de/to check whether there are any restrictions or closures at the relevant pools.

The City of Aachen is hiring staff for its swimming pools. We are looking for swimming pool attendants (m/f/d) and cleaning staff for the municipal swimming pools (m/f/d). Lifeguards (m/f/d) are also needed as additional staff. All job openings can be found on the City of Aachen’s career portal: https://karriere.aachen.de/
