Eissporthalle Iserlohn, Indoor ice rink in Iserlohn, Germany

The Eissporthalle Iserlohn is an ice hockey arena at the Seilersee whose capacity is given as 4,967 spectators, kept deliberately below 5,000 because a higher figure would have triggered new regulations. Seating is divided into 3,297 standing, 1,166 seated, 526 VIP and 10 wheelchair places. The building was originally identical in construction to the ice rinks in Duisburg, Essen and Herne.

The facility opened in 1971 and has served as a central sports venue for the region ever since. It established itself over the decades as an important hub for winter sports activities.

The hall is home to the Iserlohn Roosters of the DEL, who train and play their home games here; the Young Roosters youth teams and other amateur sides also use the ice. The building is owned by the city of Iserlohn. The rink is open to the public for skating on almost every afternoon.

The hall opens for public skating on most afternoons for a few hours; check the current times before travelling. The arena seats 4,967 spectators, with 3,297 standing, 1,166 seated, 526 VIP and 10 wheelchair places. The guest block sits on the standing terrace, moved there from the behind-goal stand.

The arena was built to the same design as the ice rinks in Duisburg, Essen (Westbahnhof) and the Hannibal-Arena in Herne; all four have since been rebuilt independently. Capacity is set at 4,967, deliberately kept under 5,000 because reaching that figure would have triggered stricter regulations.
