Remodelling and redesign of Oettingen river bathing facility
featured in sb magazine 3/2021
The go-ahead for the redesign was given in 2015 with the announcement of a planning competition for the Mühlespan outdoor bathing facility. The park-like island of Mühlespan with its river bathing facility is a local recreation area and excursion destination for young and old in Oettingen and neighbouring communities in Bavaria. The existing bathing facility on the Wörnitz was to be upgraded and the dilapidated entrance building and the equally run-down bridge were to be replaced by new structures. The Storch/JBS/RUB consortium was awarded the contract for its overall solution. A new wooden walkway now interconnects all the existing and newly erected buildings and attractions.
