Świebodzice in the rain: a pool with saunas, bowling, a shooting range and libraries, five indoor places for a grey day.
The biggest block of time goes to the Wodne Centrum Rekreacji. Inside you will find a 25 by 12.5 metre sports pool, a recreational pool, a paddling pool for the youngest and a 60 metre slide that exits the building, so only part of the ride is under a roof. After the water come four saunas: Finnish, bio, steam and infrared. It works well for a family outing, because the venue carries the “Dla rodzin” (for families) tag.
If you would rather stay dry, pick the OSiR Świebodzice bowling alley. Two bowling lanes and two classic skittle lanes have monitors showing the score, game time and technique tips. Birthday and team-building parties are organised on site too, so a group of friends or a school class can book a whole afternoon here.
The “Walkiria” shooting range accepts people with no experience. Training covers safety theory and practice, and the lanes are adapted to different skill levels. It is a sensible idea for adults who want to try something new.
With children, look in at the library’s Children’s Branch at Wolności 23. It runs a lending desk and library activities for the youngest, but the branch website gives no programme or opening hours, so call before you go. Older readers can use the main building, the Maria Dąbrowska Municipal Public Library at Świdnicka 15, with e-books and audiobooks through Legimi and IBUK Libra.
