Erlebnisbad Nemo, Water park in Magdeburg, Germany
Erlebnisbad Nemo is a recreational water park in Magdeburg with multiple water zones for play and swimming. It features pools of different depths, water play equipment, and a sauna area for relaxation.
Erlebnisbad Nemo opened in 1999 as Nemo – Die Wasserwelt, in the same year as the Bundesgartenschau in Magdeburg's Elbauenpark; the architect was Gilles Edenne. Two years later it filed for insolvency and was sold at the end of 2001, when the new owner renamed it Nautica. Nautica itself filed for insolvency on 6 July 2015, citing illness in the management, and after another change of operator in 2016 the baths took back the name Nemo.
The name Nemo comes from the water world concept of the original 1999 opening; after a 2001 sale the baths were renamed Nautica, and since 2016 they carry the original name again. The sauna area holds six saunas, among them an Aufgusssauna with fireplace, a log-cabin sauna and a hay sauna, plus a Rasul steam bath.
The facility is best visited in warm weather when outdoor areas are fully accessible. Visitors should arrive early to find a good spot, especially on weekends.
The Pearl Club occupies the bath's tower, a 600-guest disco over three levels with four bars, two dance floors and its own laser show. It opened with the Nemo in 1999, so the building has hosted swimmers and clubbers under the same roof since its first year.
