Freibad Falkenwiese, Outdoor swimming pool at Wakenitzufer, Lübeck, Germany.
The Freibad Falkenwiese extends along the Wakenitz River, featuring changing rooms and swimming areas in a natural setting east of Lübeck's historic center.
The swimming facility originated in 1799 as Kreidemannsche Anstalt, established by the Society for Promoting Charitable Activities, making it among Northern Germany's earliest swimming locations.
The swimming pool maintained separate entrances for men and women until the 1980s, reflecting the social norms and practices of previous generations.
The facility provides warm water showers for visitors and features a floating platform, with access available through the Wakenitzufer street entrance.
Local citizens formed a support association in 1999 to maintain operations, leading to UNESCO Agenda 21 recognition and subsequent facility improvements in 2001.
