Müller’sches Volksbad (Hallenbad)

Paid 23€ For 4 hours Enjoyed the Finnish sauna, steam room, 3 diff hot rooms, pool, cold pool and the big regular swimming pool. Showers, changing rooms are mixed Men and women All the time naked shahaha Only for the big swimming pool need a bathing suit Great service They did in the Finnish sauna an activity, one guy put water into the hot stones with lemongrass It was nice. Very clean place Nice building I prefer saunas with people wearing bathing suits ahahaa But was fine. Nice experience Obv no phones allowed U can bring a book and chill. U can refill your bottle of water. Nice service.

“One of the most beautiful indoor pools I’ve ever been in. The building alone is worth a visit — stunning architecture, spotless facilities, and a really unique old-world charm. The pools are a great size for both swimming and relaxing, and everything feels very well maintained. Staff were friendly, the atmosphere was calm, and it never felt overcrowded. A brilliant place to unwind in Munich and definitely a spot I’ll keep coming back to.”

Stepping inside feels like traveling back to the last century — in the best way! I was pleasantly surprised by how well-preserved the changing rooms and facilities are, almost like swimming in a museum (in a fun way, haha). The pool is clean, the water feels fresh, and the staff are super friendly. There's even a sauna, steam room, and other amenities. Definitely a place I’d love to visit again!

The pool is from year 1901, the retro style place will soothe you. You have to pay at the entrance with short time 90 min swimming (4.30 euro) or a day swimming plan (5.80 euro). Swimming costumes are compulsory. Friendly receptionist explained us everything. I will definitely recommend this place.

This pool and sauna are a fantastic experience, The staff and sauna master are very helpful and check in on you during your time. It costs 23 euro for 4 hours. The pool itself is beautiful with incredible decor but the real highlight is the sauna and baths. Yes it is naked only but when I went it was mainly going couples keeping themselves very quiet and respectful. They have a hot finish sauna, a very impressive steam room, three hot rooms which range 45c 60c and 80c. They have a large round pool which is 35c and a smaller cold pool. It's spotlessly clean and the staff are mopping the floors constantly. A real experience in a stunning old building.

A fantastic experience. The attendant spoke perfect English and took us through the process of going through to the sauna and private changing room. You have a safe for your valuables, and then leave your clothes in a private cubicle. If using the pool facilities you have two options, a lane pool and a relaxed pool, both with beautiful art deco roofs and one with a Greek fountain. If using the sauna, you derobe (yes completely naked) and should you wish, wrap a towel around yourself to move into the sauna area (advisable to bring a spare towel / rent a sheet for €6). Once in the sauna area you have a selection of 3 saunas of different temperatures up to a 90 degree Finnish sauna. In these saunas you should unwrap your towel / sheet and sit on it for hygiene reasons. There is also a brilliant steam room. In the sauna complex there is a 4 degree plunge pool and a warmer pool to relax in, you should remove your towel and hang it up before entering (make sure to shower before entering these pools if you are coming straight from the saunas) I hope that clears up any confusion (which I know I had before going). But as long as you are respectful and not obnoxious in the sauna there is nothing to worry about.

I visited Müller’sches Volksbad for the first time, and honestly, I was pleasantly surprised. The building looks really special, as if you’re entering something old and elegant. The large pool is clean and quiet, and the water is just the right temperature. The sauna area is simple but very pleasant perfect for relaxing after a swim. The staff was friendly, everything was tidy, and the ticket price is totally fair for what you get. If you’re in Munich and want some peace and a nice atmosphere for swimming, I really recommend stopping by.

A quite unique public swimming pool in art nouveau style. There is a larger basin in non-standard dimensions with around 20° water and a smaller pool with warmer water. Both pools have sections for non- swimmers. For fans of classic architecture, this place is a must! The basic ticket gives you access to the lockers and changing rooms upstairs. For a small extra fee, you can alternatively change and leave your belongings in one of the private cabins around the pool.

OK - I'll be a bit kinder in this round than I was in my Trip Advisor review, partially due to the fact that this will be the first Yelp review in English, and secondly, that the other Yelp reviews speak largely to the architectural beauty of the structure, and the museum like qualities of the sculptures, the woodwork, and simply the ornate beauty of the place. I'm on board with all that. Where my review gets dicey is when you try to compare this with the ultra self-indulgent thermal and sauna complexes that are sprouting up all over northern Europe. Not a fair comparison, it seems.... As you approach the building, it is quite imposing along the river banks (literally across the street from the Deutsches Museum). I thought, "this is gonna be great!" Once inside however, I found a few things to be more challenging than I had expected. * I was unable to locate a map of the place, and after looking at the menu of fees; I still was unable to figure out exactly what I was asking for. * The person working the admission booth was quite friendly, but apparently had NO English whatsoever. I'm good with that, but... * Signage around the place was sort of hit and miss, especially since you have to leave some of your belongings in a small box near the attendant, (who also only spoke German, but was significantly more curt!) * I kept thinking I would find a map of the place so I would know where the various baths and saunas were located. If such a thing exists, it's still a mystery to me. At one point, I made my way into the hall with the main pool wrapped only in a towel, only to find the door (that would lead me back to the sauna) locked behind me. Finally figured out my wristband would unlock the door, after a bit of wondering how I would negotiate getting out of the spa in only a towel. * But most importantly, assuming I found all the major features on offer, I was a little surprised there wasn't more there. Granted, I was there on a Wednesday afternoon, but having said that, I was surprised to find the only two dozen or so other patrons in the entire place, and most of them were, shall we say, of the elder population. All the reports about the beauty of the facility are true, as it was certainly a gem of the late 19th century, and has been well preserved. Somehow, I think that I expected there would be a bit more in the sauna area, and that even if exclusively in German, the staff would be a bit more helpful to a wayward and weary tourist. Maybe four or five stars on another day with a different attendant working the locker room, but not this time around!

Great place!!! One of the few buildings not destroied in the WW2! perfect to cold and rainy days!

I liked this place but it's a bit crowded in the pools. I love how you can just get a day pass. If you're not German be prepared for nudity and that males and females are intermixed. I went in the steam room with my swim shorts still on and was reminded I have to be naked. I didn't bring my own soap to shower with I just used the soap gel(or whatever) you can get in the bathroom by the showers.

If You are looking for historic sights in a relaxed way, this is the place to go in Munic. The Volksbad was a donation to the people of Munic by Mr. Müller. It was the first public bath of the city. It's beautifully furnished, turn of the century Jugendstil, with wonderful tiles. Try this on a cold and rainy day, You'll come out delighted.
