On this basis, the municipal building management prepared the next steps and put out a feasibility study to tender in December 2024. The study is to examine the various requirements (implementation of monument protection, resolutions on climate neutrality, requirements for a swimming pool). Possible conflicts between the requirements are to be identified, evaluated and refurbishment solutions, including financial assessment, are to be identified. Two to three variants are to be developed for this purpose.
The results of the feasibility study are expected in the second half of 2025. The political bodies will then be involved.
In addition, the creation of temporary accessibility in the Frankenbad is currently in its final stages. This includes the construction of a wheelchair-accessible ramp from the forecourt to the main entrance, a lift to reach the changing area from the entrance foyer and the upgrading of several doors with an electric opening function.
