The Schwimmhalle Finckensteinallee, an indoor swimming pool in Berlin's Finckensteinallee was completed in 1938 as a training facility for the SS regiment Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler. An outstanding example of architecture from the National Socialist era, it was used by the American military from 1945-1994. Due to its historical and architectural significance, the building received listed building protection in 2001. After being comprehensively restored between 2008-2014, its doors were opened to the public in August 2014, since which the pool has been used by schools and clubs and for sports events. The pool is located in the Lichterfelde district of Berlin.
