history
After the end of the Second World War , the Cuxhavener SV decided in 1946 to build a new sports facility. The club received the site of the former naval sports ground from the city. Since the site was too narrow, the association had to lease an additional 3,000 square meters of land. Construction work began in April 1947, during which the playing area had to be increased by 30 to 40 centimeters. For this, rubble and earth had to be fetched from Hamburg . The construction costs increased to 150,000 Reichsmarks , which were financed, among other things, by an interest-free loan from the city.
The sports field was opened with a CSV sports week from May 11th to 18th, 1950. Among other things, the footballers of Cuxhavener SV competed against FC Olten from Switzerland . From 1949 to 1959, the Cuxhavener SV played its home games in the then second-rate Lower Saxony amateur league in the arena. In 1990 the Cuxhavener SV merged with Eintracht Cuxhaven and Brockeswalder SV to form SV Rot-Weiss Cuxhaven. SV Rot-Weiss played for three years in the highest amateur league in Lower Saxony.
The stadium's audience record was set on July 23, 1977. The Hamburger SV wore its home match against Grasshoppers Zurich as part of the Intertoto Cup from Cuxhaven. In front of 6,000 spectators, Hamburg won 4-1 goals.
