Sachsenbad Dresden, Historic indoor swimming pool in Dresden, Germany.
The Sachsenbad Dresden features the clean geometric lines and functional design principles characteristic of the Neues Bauen architectural movement of the late 1920s.
Constructed between 1928 and 1929 by architect Paul Wolf, the Sachsenbad was built during the Weimar Republic as part of Dresden's modernization efforts.
The building represents the Neues Bauen movement's emphasis on functionality over ornamentation, embodying the social ideals of accessible public facilities for all social classes.
Located in Dresden's Pieschen district, the building is accessible by public transportation and currently serves as a venue for cultural events and guided tours.
The Sachsenbad originally included diverse facilities such as swimming pools, bath houses, a spa department, barbershop, refreshment room, and gymnasium under one roof.
