Weyermannshaus, Swimming center in Untermatt district, Bern, Switzerland.
Weyermannshaus is a swimming center in the Untermatt district that features both indoor and outdoor pools alongside recreational areas. The facility offers multiple swimming basins of varying sizes and spaces around them for different activities.
The swimming center opened in 1958 following designs by architect Hans Beyeler and is recognized as a cultural property of the region. Its creation in the post-war period reflects how important recreational spaces became for neighborhood development.
Local residents call the place Weyerli, and it serves as a gathering spot where families and sports enthusiasts spend time together throughout the seasons. The swimming center has become woven into the daily life of nearby neighborhoods.
Multiple entrances provide easy access to the facility, and bicycle parking is readily available for visitors. The outdoor areas are most popular during warmer months, while the indoor sections operate year-round.
The main pool has an irregular shape that resembles a natural lake rather than the standard rectangular form. This design choice makes the swimming experience feel less technical and closer to nature.
