What makes Galileo Sauna special
Galileo is one of the most popular gay saunas in southern Germany. You’re welcomed in a friendly way, and the changing room and bar with chill-out area are on one floor. Towel and locker are included in the entry fee, and there are no time surcharges on any rate. The minimum age is 18.
There are regular infusions, and in front of the sauna area there’s a spacious rest area. The darkroom extends over two floors.
Atmosphere and crowd
The crowd is mixed and, thanks to the location near the border triangle, fairly international. The sauna is just as suitable for relaxing as for small adventures. It gets especially full around Mannheim Pride.
A good fit if you …
- are looking for a sauna in the middle of the city centre
- want to come at night at the weekend too
- want cheap entry as a young guest
Not ideal if you …
- want to go on a Monday, it’s closed then
- expect a large wellness facility with a pool
