Fries alarm in the Prinzenbad: Berlin outdoor pool visitors excited!

Sommerbad Kreuzberg, Berlin, Deutschland - in Berlin it was hot these days, and not just because of the summer temperatures. June 15, 2025 was one of the hottest days of the year, the thermometers showed over 30 degrees, and the Berlin outdoor pools were crowded. In particular, the Sommerbad Kreuzberg, also known as a prince pool, attracted thousands of people on that day. According to the Berlin Baths (BBB), around 8,600 bathers came to this trendy outdoor pool, which is quite common on hot summer days. But what exactly caused excitement? A announcement in the late afternoon announced the proportion of fries in the kiosk as almost completely used up, whereupon many visitors hastily made their way to get a portion of how Berlin Live reports.

In recent years, the outdoor pools in Berlin have often been criticized for arguments between bathers, but the summer season 2024 was "largely peaceful". According to the [Tagesspiegel] (https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/belanz-beriner-bader-betriebs-15-rreb-beben-und-weniger-get- GEIST-GEUT-GEUT-GEUT-GEUTML), there was a visitor increase of 15 percent compared to previous years. By September 15, the outdoor pools reported an impressive 1.9 million visits, almost at the level of the record year 2018. According to the bathing, especially in the case of kiosks that are not operated by the BBB, would be better paid to the size of the amounts of goods offered in the future to avoid bottlenecks as on the said day.

a positive balance

The BBB is drawing a positive record of the 2024 summer season. So far, around 570,000 visitors have been noted in 15 outdoor pools, without serious security incidents. Only 303 people had to be referred to the house and bathing regulations due to violations, and 38 references were issued. An effective security concept and cooperation with the police and security services have proven themselves. In addition, the obligation to identify the identification for visitors that have existed for a year was introduced for quick identification in the event of incidents.

The Summer Bad Kreuzberg, which his gates opened for swimmers by the end of October, is not only very popular because of its popularity. The security measures also seem to have an effect among the guests themselves, which is reflected in an overall peaceful atmosphere. This is a positive sign for bathing companies, because this ensures that all the warm summer days in the Berlin outdoor pools can enjoy.

The question of how future visitor planning could look with a big rush on hot days remains. As shown, numbers such as 8,600 bathers could not be unusual on the same day as in the past. Perhaps a larger stock of crispy fries is the next step to master the next heat wave as best as possible?
