Max-Morlock-Stadion
Max-Morlock-Stadion (German pronunciation: [maksˈmɔʁlɔkˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn] ⓘ) is a stadium in Nuremberg, Germany, which was opened in 1928. It is located next to Zeppelinfeld. It also neighbors the Nuremberg Arena.
Since 1966, it has been home stadium to the German 2. Bundesliga club 1. FC Nürnberg. During the 1972 Summer Olympics, it hosted six football matches. In 1967, it hosted the European Cup Winners' Cup final between Rangers and Bayern Munich. Bayern won 1–0.
The stadium hosted five games of the 2006 FIFA World Cup, including the famous match between Portugal and the Netherlands, consequently known as the Battle of Nuremberg.
Originally it was known as the Städtisches Stadion [ˈʃtɛtɪʃəs ˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn] (English: Municipal Stadium) until 1945, when it was renamed Victory Stadium. In 1961, it returned to its original name until 1991, when it received the name Frankenstadion (German pronunciation: [ˈfʁaŋkn̩ˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn] ⓘ). The nearby railway station which was opened in 1992 was consequently called Frankenstadion from that day, not following any further changes of names.
On 14 March 2006, the stadium was renamed easyCredit-Stadion [iːziˈkʁɛdɪtˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn] for a period of five years, after a sponsorship deal with the German bank DZ Bank. Many fans of the 1. FC Nuremberg, led by the "Ultras Nuremberg" introduced on 1 April 2006, held demonstration[vague] against the name and symbolically renamed the stadium with its current name, in honour of one of the best players in the club's history, Max Morlock. On 14 February 2013, the stadium was renamed Grundig Stadion (pronounced [ˈɡʁʊndɪç ˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn] or [ˈɡʁʊndɪk-]), after a sponsorship deal with Grundig.
In July 2016, the stadium's name changed back to Stadion Nürnberg after the city of Nuremberg could not find a new sponsor. From 1 July 2017, the stadium's name officially became Max-Morlock-Stadion.
The available facilities at the stadium include two changing rooms for players, changing rooms for coaches, referees. Also physician and treatment rooms are available. A 300 m² press area, an area for press conferences, and three TV studios make the stadium a truly modern one.[according to whom?] 1200 m² makes up the VIP area with room for 800 guests. To compensate for the large number of seats there are 15,000 parking spaces with 205 for VIPs.
The stadium also has track and field facilities that follow international regulation.[vague] A full sprinkler system, that feeds the grass with rain water.[vague] The pitch is also heated, and lit with a floodlight system. There are two 60 m² video walls that provide video to the fans. There is also a full power back up system, powered by diesel generators.
