Willy-Sachs-Stadion, Association football stadium in Schweinfurt, Germany.
Willy-Sachs-Stadion is a football venue in Schweinfurt holding over 15,000 spectators. The main stand is covered with 860 seats, while standing areas and two rows of linden trees frame the ground around it.
The stadium opened in 1936 as a donation from industrialist Willy Sachs to the city, designed by architect Paul Bonatz. It underwent major modernization around 2001 with new floodlights and renovated seating areas.
The ground has been home to 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 for many decades and shapes the city's sporting life in a lasting way. The linden tree avenue surrounding the stadium gives the place a special character that goes beyond football alone.
The ground is easy to reach on foot with adequate parking nearby. On match days, arriving early helps secure good spots in the standing areas.
The stadium served as the training base for Tunisia's national football team during the 2006 World Cup. This was a notable moment that highlighted its importance beyond the local football scene.
