Swimming Pool at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex

Swimming Pool at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex, Swimming center in Meshchansky District, Moscow, Russia.

The Swimming Pool at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex was a covered swimming centre in Moscow, built from 1977 to summer 1980 for the 1980 Summer Olympics. Its 50 by 25 m pool was 2 m deep and seated 7,500; an acoustic partition separated it from the 35 by 25 m diving pool, 6 m deep with 4,500 seats. A training pool, gym and sauna were also built. The complex was demolished in 2020.

Construction of the pool ran from 1977 to the summer of 1980, when it opened as part of the Olimpiyskiy Sports Complex built for the 1980 Summer Olympics alongside the Olimpiyskiy Arena. It hosted the Olympic swimming, diving and water polo events and the swimming leg of the modern pentathlon, and in 2002 it held the Short Course World Championships. The complex was demolished in 2020 together with the main arena.

The pool hosted the swimming, diving and water polo events of the 1980 Summer Olympics, plus the swimming leg of the modern pentathlon. In 2002 it held the Short Course World Championships. The venue was demolished in 2020.

The pool complex no longer exists: it was demolished in 2020 together with the main arena of the Olimpiysky Sports Complex. The site was cleared for a fitness club, cinemas, a planetarium and a concert hall. Visitors should not plan a trip to swim here; the remaining landmark is the neighbouring Olimpiysky Arena, in the Meshchansky District of Moscow.

The complex was demolished in 2020, together with the main Olimpiysky arena, to make way for a fitness club, cinemas, a planetarium and a concert hall. The 50m by 25m competition pool was 2 metres deep, not deeper, and the diving pool next to it reached 6 metres.
