Pärchenclub Schiedel is a couples club at Schiedel, a district of Kamenz in eastern Saxony, between Dresden and the Polish border. It is run together with a small hotel under the same company.

Indoors the club describes a long list of playrooms — a mirror room, a darkroom, a room with a swing bed, an SM area and an orgy room among others — with a hot tub, a sauna and a porn cinema alongside them. Housekeeping is set out plainly: five showers, towels, cleaning materials and care products provided.

What makes this one unusual is that it does not end at the front door. There is an outdoor bar, a pool and outdoor beds, which the club presents as part of a deliberate open-air concept. Hotel rooms and cabins in the grounds can be booked directly through its website, so this is a club you can stay at rather than drive home from.

Evenings run as individual parties rather than to weekly hours, and at some of them there is a warm and cold buffet running to around midnight.
