Encyclopedia
Stadion an der Bremer Brücke is a multi-purpose stadium
in Osnabrück
, Germany
. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium of VfL Osnabrück
. The stadium holds 18,415 people and was built in 1933.
Since April 1, 2008, demolishing works of the very old North Stand are under way to make way for a modern mostly roofed stand to be built at the site. The club had planned to build an entirely roofed stand; however, there has been controversy with a local resident whose property is situated very close to the ground. As a result about one-third of the construction will be significantly lower than the rest, and the overall capacity will decrease to 16,250, but seating capacity
will rise to 5,728.
