The stadium is located in the Wiedenbrück district to the east of the town center on Rietberger Straße. The Ems flows a little further south of the stadium . The Jahnstadion is a pure football stadium without a comprehensive track or athletics facilities . The spectator capacity is 2,550, of which around 750 are covered seats in the main grandstand. The opposite stand offers some uncovered standing space with three standing steps.

The game is played on natural grass , although the field of 108 × 69 meters is slightly larger than usual. The Jahnstadion has a floodlight system with six masts. To the north of the stadium there is also a side court where people play on artificial turf . Including the guest parking spaces at the nearby indoor pool, the Jahnstadion has parking spaces for 650 cars .

history

The stadium was opened in 1950 and was initially called Jahnplatz . The Jahnplatz was used by the two Wiedenbrück clubs Westfalia and DJK . The more successful of the two clubs was Westfalia, which played in the highest Westphalian amateur league in 1955/56 . In the later years, Westfalia shuttled between the district and district league before the club moved to the newly built sports center at the castle south of the Ems in 1980 . Local rivals DJK played at district level until well into the 1990s and in 2000 reached the Westphalia Association . The DJK then merged with Westfalia to form SC Wiedenbrück 2000 , which has been called SC Wiedenbrück since April 22, 2015.

View of the playing field

In 2003, the expansion of the facility began, which was then renamed the Jahnstadion. First, new changing rooms were built and a year later the new grandstand was inaugurated. The stadium bistro was built at the same time . In 2006, the standing room on the back straight and the floodlights were built. In 2007, after the Wiedenbrückers were promoted to the Oberliga Westfalen, some modifications were made to meet the safety regulations. A year later, a new turf was laid on the pitch . At the same time, the parking areas west of the stadium were redesigned and the artificial turf pitch opened in the north.

After the then SC Wiedenbrück had made it to the Regionalliga West in 2010, the facility was rebuilt. The engineering office Brinkmann + Deppen had drawn up plans for the construction and the city has pledged its support for the project and approved the plans. The renovation was completed in November 2010. Since then, the venue has had the 5,001 seats required by the DFB . In addition, VIP and press rooms were set up on the first floor of the club's sports center . After the DFB reduced the minimum capacity for the regional league stadium, the capacity of the Jahnstadion is now 2,550.

The final of the Westfalenpokal was held twice in the Jahnstadion. In 2011, SC Wiedenbrück defeated Rot Weiss Ahlen with 3-1 goals in front of 700 spectators in 2000 . Two years later, the Wiedenbrücker lost in front of 2,500 spectators against Arminia Bielefeld with 1: 3. Here the stadium was sold out for the first time. For the home games in the DFB Cup , the Wiedenbrückers moved to the Gütersloh Heidewaldstadion due to the larger capacity .
