A new indoor swimming pool is being built in Vienna-Liesing at the site of the Höpflerbad. The project is part of the Viennese Bath Concept, which foresees the renovation of existing baths and the construction of new indoor swimming pools by 2030.

The planning committee of the city council gave the green light on Tuesday for the new indoor swimming pool at the site of the current Höpflerbad outdoor pool in Vienna-Liesing. As reported by ORF, only the city council resolution, which is to be introduced before Christmas, is now missing. The indoor pool will receive a competition-ready pool with a size of 25 by 16 meters. In addition, a 1-meter and a 3-meter diving facility are planned.

New Swimming Hall for Vienna's Höpferlbad to be Completed by Autumn 2027

There will be a teaching pool for schools and kindergartens, which is also suitable for baby swimming, as the water temperature will be higher. A toddler pool is also part of the project. The construction start is planned for the autumn of next year. Despite the construction work, summer operation should be possible in 2026, before the new indoor swimming pool is completed in 2027.

The new swimming hall for the Höpflerbad is part of the city of Vienna's bath construction program. By the year 2030, a total of five new swimming halls are to be built. In addition, about 30 expansions at existing locations are planned, including the construction of water playgrounds and the expansion of barrier-free facilities. The bath construction program includes an investment sum of 115 million euros.
