The first pile was recently driven into the ground for the De Welle swimming center in Drachten. This was celebrated with all those involved and future users. Alderman Pieter van der Zwan drilled the first pile.

Work on preparing the ground for construction started at the beginning of February. The construction pit has now been dug, in which the first foundation piles are visible.

The De Welle swimming center will be an iconic building in the vicinity of the Sportlaan and will be constructed from sustainable materials. The building will be characterized by a green identity and energy efficiency.

The swimming center will accommodate various sports and recreational opportunities. For example, there will be a 50-metre pool for top sports, a multifunctional pool and an extensive recreation program with a recreation pool, toddler zone, paddling pool, wellness and a spray park.
