The Mosel Stadium is a football and athletics stadium in Trier . The football club Eintracht Trier plays its home games in the stadium .
history
On July 6, 1930, the sports facility "Auf der D'ham", as the site was called at that time, was inaugurated. The stadium was used by the predecessor club of today's SV Eintracht Trier 05, SV Westmark 05 Trier, which was created in the year the stadium was built as a merger of the Trier soccer clubs Sportverein Trier 05, FV Kürenz and Police SV Trier.
During the National Socialist era , the facility was called the " Hermann Göring Stadium". After the Second World War it was given the name "Mosel Stadium".
In 1998, a floodlight system was set up on the occasion of the DFB Cup semi -final match against MSV Duisburg . After SV Eintracht Trier's promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga in the 2002/03 season , numerous repair work was necessary. In addition, the main grandstand was expanded, a club bar was built and the back straight was covered. Due to the increased number of visitors and the inadequate security standards of the stadium, there were heated discussions about a comprehensive expansion or the new construction of the stadium. Since the club's relegation in 2005 to the Regionalliga Süd and one season later to the then fourth-class Oberliga Südwest , the corresponding plans have been postponed.
Capacity
The Moselle Stadium has a capacity of 10,256 seats. The covered main grandstand built in the early 1960s was expanded in two construction phases from 2002. A total of 2,129 seats are now available (1,552 of which are covered). Of the 8,127 standing places, a total of 1,440 places have been covered since 2001.
In 1955 the stadium still had a capacity of around 25,000 visitors. The attendance record is 23,000 and was recorded on March 15, 1953 during the game in the then first-class Oberliga Südwest against 1. FC Kaiserslautern .
Multifunctional arena
A 1000 lux floodlight system provides the basis for television broadcasts. The six-lane tartan track that runs around the lawn offers athletes good training conditions. The surroundings also include two more grass pitches, an artificial turf pitch , a hard court , a basketball court and a 1250-meter running track.
