    Baltic Sea beach on the outskirts of the city.
    During the Weimar Republic, a new ideal of health emerged. The working population was supposed to soak up light, air and sun in their free time and stay fit through sporting activities. Berlin built public parks, sports stadiums and outdoor swimming pools. When you stand in front of the entrance building, built in 1928 in the conservative Heimatschutz style, you cannot imagine the modernity of the outdoor swimming pool. The cosmopolitan city project planned by Martin Wagner and Richard Ermisch is in the style of New Objectivity. Four halls provide space for changing rooms, shower rooms and shops. These halls, built into the bank, are connected by a long colonnade. The roofs provide space for terraces and sports areas. Only this part of the complex was built by 1930. Five more halls, a large round building with a restaurant, a lake bridge, a harbor and an open-air theater were originally planned. But the money for this was lacking due to the global economic crisis. In 1933, the Nazi regime prevented further construction due to the un-German architectural style. Nevertheless, when it opened, the facility was the largest and most modern inland outdoor swimming pool in Europe. The beach, which is over a kilometre long and 80 metres wide, is still an inviting place for swimming today.

      A beach that couldn't be more beautiful. A bit old school, but that's exactly what makes it so charming. Everything you need is there: food, drink, sanitary facilities and of course beach chairs and a sandy beach.

        Public bathing beach, very well-kept, but you need to pay to enter (5 € August, 2015). Fantastic sunsets
