    The Klagenfurt lido has existed since 1924. It is located on the eastern shore of Lake Wörthersee and is one of the largest bathing facilities on an inland lake in Europe. The entrance hall and a cabin complex dating back to the 1920s are listed as historical monuments. Easily accessible by bus or car, the pool was once the venue for the Beach Volleyball Grand Slam. The Ironman also starts here. It is operated by the municipal utilities, just like the pools in Loretto and Maiernigg.

      The entrance portal itself is a promise. Five arches, as upright as they were in the 1920s, when architecture could still welcome summer. Behind it lies the lido, which is more than just an outdoor pool: it is a social melting pot in swimwear, a grand production of suntan oil, conversations in dialect, and the eternal sparkle of Lake Wörthersee.

      Here, beach volleyballs were hurled through the air, Ironmen were thrown into the water, and memories were spread out like beach towels on the jetties. On clear days, the Pyramidenkogel stands silently on the horizon, as if watching for the stories the water tells. The lake's surface is so smooth that it refuses to be just water—it wants to be a stage, for swimmers and strollers, for the light that comes and goes.

      In winter, two people in jackets walk across the wood; in summer, hundreds of children jump into the water, somersaulting and screaming. The seasons change—the pool remains. And anyone who has ever experienced the early morning, when the mist hangs over the lake and the silence resonates louder than any bathing sound, knows that this isn't a place you simply visit. You return. Again and again.
