Gruabn, Protected football stadium in Graz, Austria

Gruabn is a listed football ground in the Jakomini district of Graz, entered from Karl-Maria-von-Weber-Gasse with a rear entrance on Kastellfeldgasse. It holds 5,000 spectators, 3,530 of them used in match operation, and its wooden grandstand, pitch and canteen were placed under monument protection in 2021.

Dr. Karl Assmann took over SK Sturm Graz in 1919 and leased the Klosterwiese, where the Gruabn opened with a 14:0 win over SAK 1914. A covered seating stand followed in March 1934, and the clubhouse known as the "Knusperhäuschen" was built 15 years later. Sturm played its last home match here on 31 May 1997, a 3:0 win over Rapid Wien, after 78 years.

The stadium is protected as a historical monument and serves as a home ground for local football clubs that play their matches here. The seating areas and the distinctive earthen embankment structure shape how visitors and fans experience the place.

The main entrance is on Karl-Maria-von-Weber-Gasse, with a rear entrance on Kastellfeldgasse. The ground holds 5,000 spectators, of whom 3,530 are used in match operations. The wooden stand was declared at risk of collapse in 2016, so check current access before visiting.

The wooden grandstand was declared at risk of collapse in 2016, prompting Sturm Graz supporters to found a non-profit association. A crowdfunding campaign raised well over its 50,000-euro minimum, and on 7 May 2021 the pitch, wooden stand and canteen were placed under heritage protection.
