The Jahnstadion in the Westphalian city of Marl is a football and athletics stadium.
The stadium was originally supposed to have a capacity of 35,000 spectators. In addition, a pylon-supported prestressed concrete structure (66.85 m × 10.10 m) was planned and built as a roof for seat covers. The height of the pylons is 31.77 meters.

- A youth tournament from 14.-16. August 1964 (International)
The tournament was announced for the opening of the stadium by the club's executive committee and the then sponsor Zeche Auguste Victoria (mining company). The well-known "German Goal Keeper Bert Trautmann" from Manchester City (Bernhard Trautmann) could be won as "patron". The guests of honor included Eusebio and Lev Ivanovich Yashin , who also awarded the tournament winner the trophy. The following clubs took part in this tournament, Real Madrid , Red Star Belgrade , Steaua Bucharest , Inter Milan , Manchester City , Sporting Lisbon , Sparta Prague and the A-youth of TSV Marl-Hüls. TSV were able to hold their own up to the round of 16, but lost to Red Star Belgrade in the quarter-finals. The final was played by Real Madrid and Red Star Belgrade, which the Madrilenians won 4-1. At that time all games were sold out (due to sponsorship).
On September 2, 1984, the Marl Pop Festival took place in the Jahnstadion. The headliner was the band The Cure .
The roof structure of the grandstand is dilapidated. The city of Marl is no longer investing any money in maintaining the stadium, as they are planning to build apartments on the site. So far these plans have failed because backfilling the stadium oval is too expensive. TSV Marl-Hüls, whose venue the stadium was for decades, has now moved to the "Im Loekamp" sports complex.
The baseball team Marl Sly Dogs has been playing in the stadium since August 24, 2008 . The club, founded in 1995, plays in the third-class regional league of the German Baseball and Softball Association and was previously based in Marl-Polsum.
As of July 31, 2017, the Marl Sly Dogs Pro forma was terminated by the city of Marl. The Jahnstadion is to be demolished and residential complexes built on the grounds of the stadium. At the 21st meeting of the Committee on School and Sport on June 21, 2017, it was decided that the baseball club could use the Jahn Stadium until August 31, 2018; after that the club is to move to the nearby Gerhard-Jüttner-Stadion in Marl-Drewer. On June 29, 2017, the town planning committee and on July 4, 2017 the main and finance committee of the city of Mark followed this decision. On July 6, 2017, the city council of Marl was the last to approve.
