About
Kombibad Paffrath is a municipal bath complex in Bergisch Gladbach which, according to the operator, offers about 3,000 m² of water surface with an indoor pool, an outdoor pool, saunas and a bistro. The outdoor 50 m pool has been closed since 1 Nov 2026, as the complex has moved to winter operation.
The operator describes the sauna world as a calm place with a family atmosphere. It has a Finnish sauna at 90 °C with an aufguss every full hour, a sanarium with mild warmth, music and light effects, a sauna garden with loungers, a plunge pool, a relaxation room, a foot bath and a sauna bar serving coffee. The sauna ticket includes use of the whole pool area.
