St. Elisabeth Hospital reopens renovated therapy pool after years of upgrades
The therapy pool at St. Elisabeth Hospital in Meerbusch-Lank has officially reopened after extensive renovations. Built in 1995 to replace an older facility, the pool now offers improved conditions for swimming classes and rehabilitation. The reopening follows a major financial effort, supported in part by public donations. The pool’s return comes after years of planning and upgrades. In 2015, its technical systems were fully modernised, ensuring better efficiency and safety. Now measuring 12 metres in length with a 72-square-metre water surface, it features depths ranging from 1.25 to 1.65 metres—ideal for safe entry and structured exercises.
New swimming courses have already started this week. Swim school swim2grow is running sessions for babies, children, and adults, alongside aqua fitness classes. The sheltered environment makes it particularly suitable for beginners, young learners, and those with health limitations.
Funding the renovations was a challenge for the hospital, which relied heavily on donations. While the pool is now operational, ongoing maintenance and future costs will continue to depend on public support. The reopening expands access to aquatic therapy and fitness for the community. Classes are underway, with options available for all age groups. The hospital remains grateful for donations, which will help sustain the facility in the long term.
