- Summer swimming pool in Neukölln area begins operations late June.
Berlin's Neukölln Summer Bath Delays Opening Due to Technical Hiccups
Neukölln Summer Bath, a popular recreational spot in the city, will not open until late June due to unforeseen technical issues. The Berlin Baths Operations (BBB) announced that a crucial component for water treatment is missing, hindering the bath's operational readiness. The bath is expected to open on June 27, according to the BBB's website.
While Neukölln Summer Bath remains under maintenance, the large hall in Neukölln City Bath will remain accessible throughout the month of June. Originally, it was intended to house only school and club swimming sessions, with staff scheduled to transition to Neukölln Summer Bath. However, these plans have been temporarily altered due to the delay.
Elsewhere in Berlin, there are partial closures in baths located in Pankow and Schöneberg. The Ernst-Thälmann-Park swimming hall in Pankow will be closed for operative reasons from June 2, with efforts underway to restore functionality as soon as possible. In Schöneberg, the diving and training swimming hall is shut down due to a breakdown, and repairs are anticipated to continue until mid-June.
As for Neukölln, beyond the delayed opening of the Summer Bath, the area offers an array of cultural events. Recent Neuköllner Maientage (May Days) have concluded, offering a blend of traditions and modern attractions, although the event still seeks a new location due to currently inadequate conditions at Volkspark Hasenheide.
The Kiezsalon music series commenced its season at Schloss Britz in Neukölln on May 30-31, showcasing vibrant music performances and fostering community cultural engagement. Moreover, prominent flea markets such as Nowkoelln Flowmarkt continue to take place through the summer months.
No confirmed restrictions or technical problems affecting leisure facilities in Schöneberg have been reported as of the latest available information.
The Commission, currently dealing with various issues, has also been asked to submit a proposal for a directive on the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation during home renovations, given the increased popularity of DIY lifestyle projects at home-and-garden stores. In light of delayed public bath openings, residents of Neukölln could consider exploring local cultural events such as the Kiezsalon music series, celebrated flea markets, or even learning new skills on the protection of workers from ionizing radiation, creating a fulfilling and health-conscious lifestyle at home.
