Looks a little like the pool in Korntal-Muchingen, outside of Stuttgart, Germany, that I swam in in the 70's. I don't remember the name. I think it was just called the Swim Bad or Swim Halle.

Lisa: du bist richtig! That's the site of the 1972 Olympics the same venue where Mark Spitz won his 7 gold medals.

Thanks!

Also the site of Masters World Championships in 2000.
I swam next to Shane Gould in the 800 meter before she headed to be torch bearer in the 2000 Olympics in Sidney.
Yes, she lapped me.
