Eisstadion Kaufbeuren, Ice arena in Kaufbeuren, Germany
Eisstadion Kaufbeuren is a covered ice arena in Kaufbeuren, Bavaria, built around a full-size competition rink with seating and standing areas arranged around the ice. The venue can hold around 3,500 people and is set up for both professional matches and public skating sessions.
The arena opened in October 2017 as a replacement for the old rink at Berliner Platz, which had served the city since 1958. The new building was designed to meet the demands of modern ice sports at a competitive level.
The arena is home to ESV Kaufbeuren, an ice hockey club with a loyal following in the region. On match days, supporters fill the stands and the area around the rink comes alive with the energy of local sports culture.
The arena sits in a central part of Kaufbeuren and is easy to reach by public transport. Before visiting, it is worth checking whether the rink is open for public skating or hosting a private event on your chosen day.
The earliest ice hockey matches in Kaufbeuren were played on a frozen pond in Jordanpark, long before any indoor facility existed. That open-air beginning shows how deep the roots of the sport go in this city.
