Stadion am Hutrasen is a football stadium in Schweinfurt, Germany. It was the former venue of 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 and VfR 07 Schweinfurt , and is now used by Hilalspor Schweinfurt for its home games.
History
In 1905, the City of Schweinfurt donated a lawn at Hutrasen, south of river Main, to newly established 1. FC Schweinfurt as training ground and for its home games. After the First World War, the club had to move to a court in close proximity.
From 1928 on, Hutrasen was donated to local competitor VfR 07 Schweinfurt, and then extended to become a football stadium with a capacity of 6,000 in 1941.[1] At that time, the club had a couple of successful seasons in the Gauliga Bayern.[2] In 1940, VfR Schweinfurt defeated Mühlheimer SV 06 2–1 at Stadion am Hutrasen in its first round match to the German Cup (Tschammerpokal).
After World War II, VfR 07 could not continue on the old road to success, and Stadion am Hutrasen hosted lower league football only. Finally, the club had to declare insolvency in April 2011.[3] Stadion am Hutrasen was left to Hilalspor Schweinfurt, and VfR 07 Schweinfurt was finally dissolved in 2015.[4]
