Lützow Sauna
Berlin, Germany
About
A classic Berlin sauna that has run for more than fifty years, tucked away on Lutzowstrasse between Tiergarten and Schoneberg. A 90C Finnish sauna, a 65C sanarium and a steam bath pair with a 30C swimming pool and a 14C plunge, with an Aufguss every full hour. Mixed and textilfrei, with a rest room and a small outdoor area.
Good to know
- Runs aufguss sessions: a guided löyly ritual where an attendant fans the steam around the room on a schedule.
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Electric stove: quicker to bring up to temperature, easier to control, and what most urban bathhouses run.
- A historic sauna with heritage worth the trip on its own, whether the building, the tradition, or both.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Pool on site: works alongside the sauna for swim-and-sauna sessions or a longer cool-down between rounds.
- Urban venue: it sits inside the city rather than at a coast or lake. A session fits into a day in town.
