The Water Factory Szczecin combines sport, leisure, education and entertainment, as well as innovation, functionality and aesthetics – all in a most remarkable way.

Fabryka Wody

The Water Factory brings a fanta­stic range of sports and leisure acti­vi­ties to the Polish city of Szczecin (form­erly Stettin, popu­la­tion 400,000) – and is much more than just a swim­ming pool.

The attrac­tions at the Water Factory Szczecin (Fabryka Wody) include 21 swim­ming pools, eleven water slides, a huge well­ness area, a beach with volley­ball court and an amphi­theatre that can be trans­formed into an ice rink in winter. This is the sporting area.

On the other side, the western wing of the 17,000 m² area is dedi­cated to the Water Factory Educa­tion Centre. Here you will find a wealth of know­ledge and enter­tain­ment on the subject of water and its importance with regard to our lives and our civi­li­sa­tion.

Water features and desert sauna

The water features and swim­ming pools at Water Factory Szczecin cover an area of more than 2,400 m², inclu­ding a complete indoor pool complete with sports basin, rela­xa­tion area inclu­ding infi­nity pool, salt­water pool, outdoor pool, paddling pool for children and a VIP area with cinema screen.

The well­ness area comprises 18 themed saunas in their very own worlds. These include a desert sauna, a para­dise island, a volcanic sauna, rose or beer baths, and a snow grotto.

Networks and peepholes

The Water Factory Educa­tion Centre consists of six thematic blocks: Space, Climate, Ocean, Humans, Water Civi­li­sa­tion and Water Tech­no­logy, all of which make use of digital media and networks. Visi­tors can launch a ship here or make rain­bows, water swirls, and clouds.

The labo­ra­to­ries and having the oppor­tu­nity to go under­neath the swim­ming pools and look through peepholes to gain insight into water tech­no­logy and treat­ment, as well as energy gene­ra­tion and supply, are equally exci­ting.

Amenities and sunshine

The Water Factory Szczecin also boasts the latest equip­ment and buil­ding tech­no­logy. This includes not only state-of-the-art and time-hono­ured swim­ming pool tech­no­logy, but also water tech­no­logy and the use of rene­wable energy. This makes it possible to sunbathe in both the indoor swim­ming pool and the well­ness area – thanks to skylights made of ETFE film, which let UV radia­tion (natural sunlight) into the inte­rior of the buil­ding.
