Jahnbad Miltitz reopened after renovation - a festival for the family!
The Jahnbad was reopened in the Miltitz district of Klipphausen after an extensive renovation. The swimming pool, which has existed since 1933, had to be closed in 2024 due to ailing pools. The closing time lasted one and a half years, while the bathers had to switch to other bathrooms. Mayor Mirko Knöfel described in detail that the old steel wall frames had to be replaced because they were no longer in a safe condition. Now the new pools made of durable stainless steel are manufactured, which is crucial for the future of the bath. So MDR reports.The cost of the renovation amounts to around three million euros, of which 670,000 euros were covered by funding. The rest was financed from the household's own funds. Klipphausen benefits from income from commercial areas that support the operation of the bath. Regardless of the modernizations, the technology of the bathroom also remains behind the current standards; She is over 32 years old and should also be renewed.
positive feedback from visitors
After the reopening, the spouses Tina and Christian Albert from Munzig expressed their joy over the new circumstances. A modern swimming pool is of great importance, especially for their children. Gerd Melchinger from Meißen has also had experience while swimming in the cool water and reports on the current conditions in the new bathroom. The main water source of the bath is the nearby Lime mine Miltitz, which saves costs, but the water provides with a temperature of only eight degrees that still has to be warmed up before swimming.
Together with Kristin Göpfert, a frequent visitor to the bathroom with her child after the daycare center, the community hopes that the updated Jahnbad meets the needs of families in Klipphausen. The bathroom not only offers opportunities for relaxation, but also promotes sporting activities. Swimming pools such as the Jahnbad are municipal facilities and are subject to the guidelines of the health department, which ensure that hygiene requirements are observed. This is particularly important in an environment in which, according to the Wikipediart, swimming pools fulfill numerous functions, from relaxation to sporting activities.

The reopening of the bath brings a breath of fresh air for the local population and offers a home for swimming that is estimated in the region.
