Aq-Va-Kul is a swimming complex in western Malmö city, Sweden and is owned by the Malmö Municipality. It was built in 1956 as ''Simhallsbadet'' with a 25 m pool. In 1977, a 50 m pool was built and in 1988 a water park was added. There are also a Turkish bath and a relax division. The facility has 600,000 visitors yearly. The name Aq-Va-Kul is a word play on the Latin word for water, aqua, and the Swedish phrase ''Ack, vad kul'' (English: "Oh!, how fun") The swimming complex was closed non-permanently on 14 March 2007, because of bad maintenance but was reopened on 1 October 2008. Aq-Va-Kul has been the arena for seven Swedish Short Course Swimming Championships (last time in 2003), four Swedish Junior's Swimming Championships (last time in 2002), four Swedish Youth Short Course Swimming Championships finals (last time in 2006), and several meets in the FINA Swimming World Cup series in the 1990s. The current European record on men's 800 m freestyle was set in the 25 m pool in January 1997 by German Jörg Hoffman with the time of 7:36.24. ==External links== * (Aq-va-kul website ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aq-Va-Kul」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
