The DeKoven Pool has been educating and entertaining people for generations.  We offer Swim Lessons , water exercise classes, and Senior and Family Swims when the pool is open to the general public.  The Pool and Gym can be rented for private parties.

Pool and Gymnasium History

Built in 1875, the Gymnasium is a favorite gathering place for sporting enthusiasts throughout southeastern Wisconsin. Its full-court parquet floor provides an ideal surface for basketball, volleyball, and other athletic activities.  The gym floor is unique in that it is a ‘sprung’ floor which gives a nice bounce for players.

The gymnasium is available throughout the year for individual and group rentals.

Built in 1913 in a wing of the gymnasium building, the indoor swimming pool was among the first to be installed in the upper Midwest. Recent renovations have restored and preserved the Italian mosaic tile which lines the pool, deck, and walls. Rows of six foot tall clear glass windows flank the room, providing a unique experience of lighting during all seasons.

Spacious locker rooms and showers are provided.

The pool is available for hourly, individual and group rental during times outside of the DeKoven Center’s sponsored activities.  The DeKoven Center sponsors low to medium impact aquacise and water aerobic classes. The pool is kept at 88 degrees year round a perfect temperature for aqua therapy.
