Sparkassen-Arena, Jena, Indoor sports venue in Burgau, Jena, Germany
Sparkassen-Arena is a modern indoor sports hall in Jena designed to host basketball, handball, judo, and other sporting events. The interior accommodates around 3,000 spectators and features a large LED display screen positioned above the center of the playing area.
Construction began in August 2013, and the facility opened in January 2014 following a substantial financial investment. This project strengthened the city's sporting infrastructure by providing a modern venue for professional and regional competitions.
The venue serves as the home ground for the Medipolis SC Jena basketball team and draws regular crowds supporting local sports traditions. It shapes the sporting life of the city and provides a gathering place where the community comes together for major matches.
The location in Burgau offers convenient access with parking available nearby for visitors arriving by car. An on-site restaurant at the adjacent Schlossberg building provides food and beverage options before and after events.
In 2021, the venue hosted the PDC World Cup of Darts, bringing together an international darts community for high-stakes competition. This event shows how the hall serves specialized sports beyond traditional team sports.
