Groundbreaking ceremony for Panoramabad Pforzheim

November 2025

The date for the groundbreaking ceremony for the Panoramabad Pforzheim proved to be fortunate in two respects: although scheduled for mid-November, this Wednesday saw neither snow nor rain, but rather bright sunshine and temperatures almost suitable for outdoor swimming. However, it will be some time before the outdoor pool and the new indoor pool with sauna area on the Wartberg can actually be used.

Another important step in this direction, and this is the second point, took place on the evening before the ground-breaking ceremony: the local council approved the development plan. That is why, on the occasion of the symbolic ground-breaking ceremony, Mayor Peter Boch not only received a spade engraved with a silhouette from our managing director Dimitrios Kogios. Building Mayor Tobias Volle was also able to ceremoniously present the partial building permit. In his speech, he spoke of a ‘bath that will set new standards beyond the city with its architecture, functionality and sustainability’. We are looking forward to the coming months and the start of construction in the spring. Many thanks to all those involved in the planning for their constructive and trusting cooperation.
