history
The stadium was located on the site of the former marshalling yard of the customs inland station in Bremerhaven's Lehe district . It was opened on April 1, 1926 by the Bremerhaven 93 , ATS Bremerhaven and SC Sparta Bremerhaven clubs and had a capacity of 12,000 seats. From 1945 Bremerhaven 93 played alone in the "Zolli", as the stadium is popularly known. The 93er played there from 1948 to 1963 in the first-class Oberliga Nord, from 1963 to 1974 in the second-rate Regionalliga Nord and from 1974 to 1977 in the third-rate Oberliga Nord. Then the club went on in the OSC Bremerhaven .
The attendance record was set on September 5, 1948, when Bremerhaven 93 received in front of an alleged 15,000 spectators against FC St. Pauli and won the game 3-0. In 1955 the 93er qualified as runner-up in the Oberliga Nord for the final round of the German championship. However, the German Football Association refused to host games at the "Zolli", so the Bremerhaven team had to move to the Bremen Weser Stadium. From the proceeds of the final round, the club built a grandstand along Pestalozzistraße in 1956 .
This later had to be torn down because the city of Bremerhaven wanted to expand Pestalozzistraße. However, there was no expansion. From 1992 FC Bremerhaven played its home games in the "Zolli", which led to disputes with the OSC. FC Bremerhaven, in turn, joined SC Sparta in 2012, which then renamed itself FC Sparta Bremerhaven . The Zollinlandplatz held 3,000 uncovered standing places until the demolition and was used by FC Bremerhaven until the end.
