Weinauparkstadion, stadium
Weinauparkstadion is a sports venue in Zittau with a natural grass field, a 400-meter running track, and athletic facilities for events like jumps and throws. The stadium holds roughly ten thousand spectators with covered and open seating areas plus standing room.
The stadium was built in 1915 as an athletic venue and received major updates in 1955. Following a flood in 2010, further repairs took place, while a wooden grandstand from 1894 remains protected as a heritage monument.
The stadium's name comes from the surrounding Weinaupark, reflecting the town's deep connection to sports over many generations. Visitors can observe how the place brings residents together for competitions and local events, serving as a gathering point for the community.
The stadium is easy to reach within Zittau with clear signage on site to guide visitors. Plan to visit during events when you want to experience the full atmosphere, and wear comfortable shoes to walk around the grounds.
A bicycle racing track from the 1890s once occupied this site and is now the oldest covered sports structure still protected as a monument in Germany. This hidden history adds depth to what visitors see today.
