In 2012, the swimming bath was completely renovated, maintaining its fifties style.

Artificial waves attract guests at the Cosimabad - Munich's first and only swimming pool with a wave machine. The waves are turned on every 30 minutes. Between the wave-machine sessions, swimmers take possession of the 33-meter pool. The open air pool with a heated whirlpool and massage jets offers great outdoor recreation, where you can swim openly beneath the sky, even if it's snowing all over the Bavarian capital.
Younger visitors enjoy the children's paddling pool with several water toys and other water attractions. Sauna fans, on the other hand, would like the 900 m² sauna area. In the blockhouse sauna, the temperature is like in a Finnish sauna, while the atmosphere resembles that of a mine shaft. Other attractions are the steam bath and the sanarium with crystals and color changing light. Finish off your day in the bath at the open-air terrace with the combined Kneipp and plunge pool for cooling off and on the loungers for relaxation.

Müllersches Volksbad
Engineer Karl Müller donated the financial resources for building the Müllersche Volksbad on one condition: that the city builds a bath for the poor. In 1901, the swimming pool opened its doors. The bathing temple with its art nouveau design has many interesting things to offer and is one of the main attractions when it comes to swimming and bathing in Munich.
In the past, one 31-meter swimming pool and one 18-meter swimming pool divided male from female swimmers. The roman steam bath with the open-air courtyard is a must visit. There is also a Finnish sauna with color changing lights. At hourly intervals, water is poured onto the hot rocks. The baths in the Müllersche Volksbad were built at a time, when having your own bathroom was pure luxury. The city of Munich maintained the character of the pool as part of the city’s history.

Bad Giesing-Harlaching
Functionality and purist ambience were two goals, when the Bad Giesing-Harlaching was redeveloped in 2012. The public indoor swimming pool offers a 25-meter sports pool, a non-swimmers' pool, exercise pools, a parent and child area and a lawn area for sunbathing with paddling pool (accessible only in summer).
Bad Giesing-Harlaching offers several swimming and fitness courses for all age groups and all levels of fitness.
