LICHTenberg – Light, Sound & Atmosphere

Two pools, two worlds: walk through two swimming pools, each with its own emotional atmosphere, ranging from calm and impressive to powerful and overwhelming.

Audiovisual composition

Film scores, electronic beats and iconic sounds from the world of video games blend with a light orchestra of colour, movement and space.

Here’s how your visit will unfold

Arrive on time: come at the time stated on your ticket – depending on visitor numbers, you may arrive up to 15 minutes before or after your time slot. The exhibition closes at 9 pm on Saturdays and 8 pm on Sundays.

Explore two halls

In around 60–90 minutes, you’ll walk through two swimming pools, each with its own atmosphere: from calm and evocative to powerful and overwhelming. The main hall has seating and is heated. The side hall is unheated.

Experience it by day or by night

During the day, natural light showcases the historic architecture; after dark, the light spectacle unfolds its full magic. Golden hour: choose the first evening ticket slot and experience how the light installation becomes increasingly spectacular as daylight fades.

About LICHTenberg

Step inside the historic Lichtenberg municipal swimming pool and witness 100 years of history come to life in a masterful light spectacle. Bass, beat and melody become visible; sound becomes space and light becomes music: iconic melodies from film, electronic music and gaming lend a new dimension to every corner of the historic setting.

Two impressive swimming halls transport you to two completely different worlds – gentle soundscapes and immersive colour gradients in one, powerful rhythms and dynamic light pulses in the other. LICHTenberg is not an exhibition to be viewed merely from a distance: you are right in the thick of it. Immersive. Sonically powerful. Moving.
