    Zwembad
    Efteling

    ____________________________________________________________________________________________

    Zwembad (Dutch for swimming pool) was one of the most famous and most popular rides of De Efteling. It was opened in 1953 and closed in 1989! Later the new Efteling Theater has been built on it's location. And now you can find the ride De vliegende hollander on this location. The swimmingpool was pretty large, and had some slides for fun.



    Beside the big swimmingpool there was a small undeep pool for the kids who couldn't swim that good, there was a big elephant functioning as a fountain. Even after removing the big swimmingpool, the small one with elephant was functioning until 2003. It was therefore relocated to the Anton Pieck plein. The reason for removing the swimming pool was a little bit difficult. The Efteling wanted to close it much earlier, but because of the need for a swimmingpool for the surrounded villages there was no-way to remove it. Years later they have finally removed it because of the low popularity, and the high costs of operating.

     Did you know:
    That this swimmingpool was once the most beautiful and modernest swimmingpool of The Netherlands?

    - Popularity Attraction
    The ride was very popular, until the 80's Since then the popularity became less and less, and so the ride has been removed.


    - Waiting Times
    There were no waiting times for this attraction.

    - Theming attraction
    This swimmingpool was not themed, it was just an outdoor swimmingpool with some attributes. The big elephant fountain was the only actual decoration. The trees and the lake around it were a nice setting for a swimmingpool in a natural area.


    - Riding Time
    You chose your own riding time, but we think that most of the people took about an hour or even more te swim here on hot and warm days!

    - Disordering of attraction
    This attraction was always open.
