City life comes to a halt as seasons change in urban regions

The outdoor baths in Kleinlinden and Lützellinden, managed by Sonja Krausmüller, have wrapped up an eventful 91-day swimming season. A total of approximately 22,000 bathers visited the facilities during this period.

July, however, saw a dip in visitor numbers due to gloomy and rainy weather. The fluctuating weather conditions, particularly during the summer holidays, had an impact on attendances. While no specific numbers or details about the impact of the weather on visitor numbers during other months were provided, it is clear that the weather played a role in shaping the season.

Visitors flocked to these outdoor baths to cool off, swim laps, or enjoy the sun. The outdoor baths provided a refreshing escape for many, offering a much-needed respite from the summer heat.

As for the upcoming indoor swimming season, no information was available at the time of publishing. Bathers are advised to keep an eye on the press and the website www.giessener-baader.de for updates.

In a surprising turn of events, the outdoor bath Ringallee, managed by the Gießener Bäder, has extended its season beyond August 31st. Season ticket holders for the district baths can use their cards in the outdoor bath Ringallee after August 31st. The outdoor bath Ringallee remains the only outdoor bath still open in the area, with the Freibadeanlage Ringallee scheduled to close on Sunday, September 14, 2025.

Sonja Krausmüller, the swimming master of the outdoor baths in Kleinlinden and Lützellinden, announced that the outdoor bath Ringallee will close for the season, and bathers will be informed in advance. The press and the website will be used to communicate the closing date of the outdoor bath Ringallee.

Despite the closing of the outdoor baths, the memories of a summer spent swimming, relaxing, and enjoying the sun will linger on. The outdoor baths have once again proven to be a beloved destination for locals and visitors alike, offering a unique and enjoyable experience. As the leaves begin to change and the air grows cooler, we look forward to the indoor swimming season and the opportunities it will bring.
