Hofwiesenbad Gera: vouchers extended - renovation starts soon!
The popular Hofwiesenbad in Gera faces comprehensive changes. From the beginning of the next month, the renovation work on the roof will begin, which should be completed by the end of 2025. So far, the 50-meter swimming pool has not been available since the end of May, and the leisure area and the sauna now have restrictions. These measures are necessary to keep the bathroom attractive and functional for visitors.
In general, the regular guests of the Hofwiesenbad have to adjust to an automatic extension of their vouchers . Since the bathroom remains closed for about half a year due to the extensive renovation measures, affected users can easily extend an extension at the cash register, as Gera.de reports that.renovation work and planned closing times
The entire swimming pool will be closed for three weeks from July 14, 2025 due to the annual revision. Afterwards, the first swimming courses for elementary school students are planned from August 11, 2025. The leisure activities and the sauna systems are then available for these students.
The city of Gera has already made some investments in the past. After a closing time lasting six weeks, the Hofwiesenbad was recently reopened. During the summer vacation, not only the water - a total of 160,000 liters - was replaced, but also replaced parts of the filter systems. A new scoreboard was installed to enable national and international championships. This investment of 38,000 euros is intended to further increase the attractiveness of the bathroom, which mdr.de reports.
funding for renovation projects
The renovation of the Hofwiesenbad falls within the scope of a larger federal program. Federal Minister Klara Geywitz announced that 400 million euros are available for energy renovations of local institutions. In particular, these funds should help to reduce renovation traffic jams and to improve the social integration offers of the cities, as can be seen in the press release of the Federal Ministry of Housing, Urban Development and Building (Bmwsb).
For Gera citizens, this is a step in the right direction to secure the attractiveness of the Hofwiesenbad in the long term and to promote social cohesion through community activities. It remains to be hoped that the renovation work will be carried out effectively so that the swimming sports facility can be fully usable again in 2026.
