When on the left site the eye-catching Forum Landsberger Allee (with the competitors hotel "Park Plaza") appears you see about 4 meters of stands and behind this there it is:
the "Schwimm- und Sprunghalle im Europapark (SSE)" - or better the roof of the pool.
By entering the pool you will be really impressed – Olympic size and everything at it’s best:
A 50 m (or 2 x 25 m) pool with 10 lanes and a 20 m diving pool with futuristic diving facilities.
There are stands for 2500 spectators and with temporary stands around 4000 people can watch the events.

They see a lot of white marble and all in artificial light, cause the small windows under the ceiling allows only very few daylight in.
One floor below the training facilities are impressive as well. There is a pool with 18 x 25 m lanes, a big gym, a dry diving facilities and more rooms for training, physiotherapeutic and medical purposes.
