The facility offers 3,200sq m (34,444sq ft) of indoor pools, including a 915sq m (9,848sq ft) water area, 25m pool, diving pool, non-swimmers pool, children’s pool, outdoor pool with bubble jets and a tower with three water slides.
Ovaverva, which is spread over four floors, will be environmentally friendly and was designed by a consortium of architects made up of Swiss-based Bearth & Deplazes and Morger + Dettli.
