Lack of personnel in the Lohrer outdoor pool: What's next in 2025?

Lohr, Deutschland - in the Lohrer outdoor pool, the Main-Spessart-Bad, is bubbling up huge: a lack of staff at risk of the coming season 2025. According to statements from informed circles, the entire regular personnel have been lost, and those responsible are faced with the challenge of finding suitable specialists. Mayor Mario Paul said to the Main-Post that you can work on solutions to enable the bathing season regularly. Despite a successful summer 2024, which attracted many visitors by opening the outdoor pools to Corona, the new plans could now be overwhelmed by personnel worries.

opening times and falling visitor numbers

The outdoor pool season is coming to an end, and opening times in Lohr also change. From Monday, September 2, you can only splash around from 12 noon to 7 p.m. before the bath is likely to close its gates on September 9, as Radio Gong reports. The location is tense: While other outdoor pools in the region are already adapting their opening hours and heading for autumn closure, the uncertainty about the future of the Lohr bath remains. An external service provider could offer a solution, but it remains unclear whether this is the right decision in the long term.

While the Frammersbacher outdoor pool has experimented with it, Lohr is forced to think about how to proceed in order to maintain the quality of the bathroom operation. Technical renovations are also pending, which could require an experienced hand, which also makes the search for specialist staff more difficult. Against the background of these difficulties, the Lohrers have to become creative to find a solution that does not burden both the operation and the community economy.
