Eightyone thousand three hundred and sixty-five

That's how many fans fit into SIGNAL IDUNA PARK, Germany's largest football stadium

If you had told the people of Dortmund 30 years ago about a football temple with a capacity of over 80,000 in their city centre - a stadium boasting a glass façade, undersoil heating and the largest stand in Europe - they would have all smiled tolerantly at such a fanciful notion. Nowadays, though, the SIGNAL IDUNA PARK on Strobelallee is Germany’s largest football stadium with a capacity of exactly 81,365. The fact that the outlay for Borussia’s enormous arena almost crippled the club financially is another matter entirely – and one which was fortunately resolved at the end of May 2006.

The venue located on Strobelallee – known as “the temple” by fans and regularly dubbed “the most beautiful stadium in the country” by the press, professionals and VIPS alike – has been one of the largest and most comfortable stadia in Europe since the third expansion phase was completed. A long process of construction and conversion reached its peak when the stadium was renovated in the run-up the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Yet works are carried out on the stadium every summer, with BVB investing some ten million Euro in the renovation of the now-ageing arena in 2012 alone: both the grass and the drainage in the southern half of the pitch were replaced; the south stand was strengthened by support measures; concrete sanitation measures were implemented in the northern part; seven new VIP boxes were added in the part of the east stand where the press area used to be; new cameras armed with impressive digital technology provide greater security, with the away area and the lower tier of the south stand in particular under increased observation; and in the year before new scoreboards were installed.

The stadium story began some 40 years ago - on 5 April 1965 to be precise. After four long years of discussing the expansion and modernisation of the somewhat outdated "Rote Erde" arena, the city’s Central and Financial Committee "took note of the suggestion not to expand the Rote Erde stadium, but instead to build a new football stadium by incorporating the two western practice fields and the small surface area occupied by the air bath". The first step on the path to building a completely new arena - named the "Twin Stadium" in official circles in view of its parallel construction to the Rote Erde - had been taken. 

Yet the project did not gather full momentum until the city of Cologne decided against building a new stadium at the start of the 1970s, paving the way for Dortmund to apply as a host city for the 1974 World Cup – and for the construction of a new stadium. Without the federal and state funding provided, the financing of the Westfalenstadion would simply not have been feasible.

On 2 April 1974 - nine years after the official decision had been made – the Westfalenstadion was officially opened, with the stadium offering 54,000 predominantly standing spaces. The inauguration took place in a friendly match against Schalke 04. And the stadium has lost none of its aura since. Quite the opposite, in fact. Radio broadcasters rave about the “temple of German football” when they report from such a unique arena: the proximity to the pitch, the acoustics thanks to its complete roofing and the unique passion the fans in the Ruhr have for the beautiful game. All of this creates a crackling atmosphere, casting a spell over spectators and striking fear into opponents. An opinion poll in May 2006 saw professional footballers at the 18 Bundesliga clubs rate the grounds in Hamburg (28%) and Dortmund (27%) as their favourites.

To be precise, the history of the SIGNAL IDUNA PARK dates back to the year 1961. It was then that the Sporting Committee first discussed the expansion of the "Rote Erde Arena". In those days, which were characterised by structural change in the Ruhr and the onset of the coal and steel crisis, money was no less of a boundary than it is today. That goes some way to explaining why ten years went by before the Council decided on 4 October 1971 to build the Westfalenstadion. Finances still proved problematic, though.

The German Football Association might have been awarded hosting rights for the 1974 World Cup in 1966, yet Dortmund’s plans for a new stadium to be constructed in a conventional design – thus costing 30 million Euro - threatened to fall apart. Despite the clear decision by the Council, administrative authorities were still exploring the option of expanding the existing arena in a bid to save costs. 

The head of the sports department Erich Rüttel succeeded with his proposal to build a stadium based on the model of the Canadian Olympic City of Montreal (1976) using prefabricated construction methods. It was the decisive breakthrough. The costs were halved, with the outlay in initial talks estimated at 27 million Marks (almost 14 million Euro). By the end of the construction works, it came to seven million Marks more. 

Just five months later, on 19 October 1970, the Council gave the plans the green light and decided to begin building the Westfalenstadion the following year. Over 80% of the 17 million Euro costs were funded by federal and state support, lottery takings and donations. The city contributed three million Marks to this sum, realising early on that the 1974 FIFA World Cup would offer them an unprecedented chance to construct a suitable arena for the future – without the World Cup there would have been no funding. After all, the provisional stand in the south curve of the "Rote Erde" already showed signs of damage and an internal paper by the Planning Committee revealed: "After the dismantling of this stand, the capacity will be reduced to 25,000."

The Westfalenstadion, on the other hand, would hold 56,000 fans. Ultimately, it was around 54,000, although only 17,000 places were seated. The fact that the majority of spectators (47,000) were covered by a roof received special praise from BVB's then President, Heinz Günther. It offered "the average man in the street" a roof over his head, which was by no means usual at that time.

Zaire, Scotland, Sweden, Brazil and tournament runners-up Holland played their 1974 group stage matches at the Westfalenstadion as football fever gripped the city of Dortmund. All of the enthusiasm that had been present in the golden years of the '50s and '60s returned to the city during the World Cup, and could soon be felt at fixtures in the second tier of the Bundesliga. Regular attendances of over 45,000 fans - three times as many as beforehand in the Rote Erde - suddenly flocked to BVB matches as the club benefited considerably from its new stadium. Two years later, in June 1976, Borussia returned to the top tier of German football. In 1983, the club then celebrated its return to the European stage following a 15-year absence. The Black and Yellows won the DFB Cup in 1989, the German league title in 1995, 1996 and 2002 and reached three European finals, winning one - the most important one against Italian giants Juventus in the 1997 UEFA Champions League.

For the 18-year period up until 1992, the Westfalenstadion remained largely in its original condition. However, the 14 years that followed were characterised by drastic modifications - five in total. In 1992, the stadium capacity was reduced to 42,800 spectators when the standing places in the north stand were converted into seats. As part of expansion stage one, the capacity of the west and east stands was increased by 6,000 places respectively thanks to the addition of a further upper tier three years later. The second expansion phase saw the capacity increase to 68,600 in 1999 when the south stand - the focal point of Dortmund's enthusiasm for football - was increased to 24,454 to make it the largest stand in Europe. For international matches, the standing spaces can be transformed into seats.

On 6 May 2002, the works on the closure and the expansion of the corner areas finally got underway. First of all, 15-metre-long foundation piles were inserted into the ground in the north and south area and placed in the corners of what later became the stairway, redirecting the incredible load of 3,000 tonnes per stand roof onto stable ground. The foundation work for the supports and staircases took place on these piles. Yet another highly demanding engineering challenge was the construction of the stadium roofing. As part of this process, the corner pylons inside the stadium which supported the roof and therefore obstructed the view of spectators sitting in the new seats in the expanded corner area were replaced by eight externally installed yellow steel pylons.

The third expansion stage, which was completed on 13 September 2003, did more than just increase the stadium capacity to around 14,000. BVB has now sets new standards when it comes to providing top-notch hospitality. With a total of 3,450 seats in its catering areas, SIGNAL IDUNA PARK is also home to the largest hospitality area in the German Bundesliga. However, everything is still in proportion in Dortmund's ground, with the catering areas only holding a modest percentage of the entire stadium capacity.

The eight 62-metre-high yellow pylons have since become a landmark in the Dortmund skyline. In December 2005 they were joined by letters spelling the stadium name, which are up to 3.5 metres high and visible in the distance from main roads 54 and 1, appearing in black by day and glowing white by night. 

Following the expansion, BVB fans readily accepted their temple with great pride. And the club's marvellous attendance record in recent years attests to this. A breath-taking work of construction and phenomenal fans provide the club with the optimal conditions to host many great football spectacles in the greatest (and biggest) ground in the Bundesliga. To be exact, it can now hold exactly 81,365 spectators due to the reconstruction measures taken prior to the World Cup (including the removal of the last seat shells from 1974 and the demolition of the front sections) and the modernisation work carried out before the 2012/13 season.

Only one footballer has had really negative experiences in the "temple" on Strobelallee in this 32-year-period: ex-Braunschweig player Danilo Popivoda. On 23 April 1977, with worms plaguing the turf, Popivoda found himself unmarked just six metres from the Borussia goal, drew his foot back to shoot and slipped on a piece of grass no longer attached to its worm-infested roots. He landed on his nose, while the ball stopped in front of the line. Borussia and Braunschweig drew the match 0-0.

BVB Stadion Dortmund Complete Guide - Everything You Need to Know

Ask any football fanatic to name a bucket list of football grounds to visit in your lifetime and if Westfalen isn't among them, remove the said title from their description. Borussia Dortmund's home, known now as Signal Iduna Park, is one of the top five stadiums for enjoying football. Even through a screen. So the BVB Stadion Dortmund complete guide is a must-read, especially for those lucky fans going to the Euros.

Firstly, the stadium is known as Westfalen amongst the fans, the sponsorship name is Signal Iduna Park when BVB plays on it. But for the EURO, due to UEFA regulations, it cannot bear the name of the sponsor. Hence, for the summer of 2024, it's named after the city it's located in and the famed abbreviation for the home club.

BVB Stadion Dortmund complete guide: History and construction

Now about the origins of the goosebumps factory that contains the second most important wall in Germany, and is the third biggest football stadium in Europe!

Earlier in the 20th century, Borussia Dortmund was playing its games on the Stadion Rote Erde, the Red Eearth stadium. Bearing its name after the province it was in, Westphalia, known historically as Red Earth.

In 1974, the Westfalenstadion (also named after Westphalia) replaced the Rote Erde ground.

The two Borussia grounds are located immediately adjacent to each other.

BVB started winning its first titles in the second part of the 50s and the Rote Erde Stadion became too tight for all the fans of the club. Yet the city didn't have the money for a new ground, despite being in one of the richest industrial provinces of not just Germany, but Europe.

As in 1974 Germany was to host the World Cup, the city of Cologne got the funds to build one of the host stadiums. Yet it couldn't fulfil the task at hand and Dortmund got the nod in 1971.

At the time, the modest cost of the ground was 32.7 million Deutsch marks. By today’s numbers, it’s estimated that the initial cost of the BVB Stadion Dortmund was €200,000,000!

But with a capacity and the amenities far from what the BVB faithful have been dreaming of.

"Only" 54,000 spectators could've fit the ground at the time. Far less then the Signal Iduna’s Park capacity today.

Construction started in 1971 and it ended in 1974, meaning that in 2024, the Westfalen Stadium will have a 50-year anniversary.

A period during which it received several facelifts in terms of renovations and reconstructions.

The first one came in 1992 when the initial capacity was diminished by more than 10,000 to 42,800. Due to UEFA regulations.

However, just three years later, the stadium's capacity was increased again, to the previous capacity of 54,000. With two new terrace tiers added on the two main stands.

As BVB was enjoying their golden years at the time, winning the 1997 Champions League title, the stadium needed to host more people. This time, the north and south stands were increased, with the stadium's total capacity coming to 68,800.

Of course, as is the case today in BVB home games, the south stand is a free-standing terrace with a capacity of 25,000 people!

Providing for one of the most imposing views in football, bearing its famed name - The Yellow Wall.

As Germany won their bid for hosting the 2006 World Cup in 2000, it signalled the need for another improvement period on now the country's largest football ground.

This time, the corners were added between the stands and the capacity for international games reached 67,000.

Impressively, this addition enhanced the ground with 5,000 VIP seats!

This reconstruction was also notable because of what it uncovered - a 450-kilogram heavy undetonated bomb from the World War II era! It was located only about one metre below the halfway line on the pitch! Construction was halted and nearby neighbourhoods were evacuated for the bomb squad to come and disarm the device.

In 2024, BVB Stadion Dortmund holds a maximum of 81,365 spectators.

However, for the EURO 2024, the BVB Stadion Dortmund capacity is limited to 62,000!

From the 2022/2023 season, fans were allowed to stand during Champions League games, so the stadium has the same capacity as for the domestic games.

BVB Stadion Dortmund Complete Guide: Architecture and Dimensions

All of the terraces are covered by a memorable roof construction, yet due to the winds, not everyone is going to be safe from rain at all times. Not that it would hinder The Yellow Wall.

The eight-metre tall yellow pylons rising to the height of 62 metres have since become a landmark in the Dortmund skyline.

But the silhouette the roof gives to the ground isn't the only notable thing. The surface of it is covered with solar panels that shape the logo of Borussia Dortmund!

The lower echelons of the stadium's exterior consist of a glass facade. So while the interior holds an industrial, raw metal look to it, the outside is quite modern. A particular necessity in this case, as the stadium is located in the broader city centre. Not on the outskirts of the city like in Munich.

There are four video screens inside the stadium. The fifth screen on the outside of the north stands is smaller, measuring 28 square meters.

The pitch size is 105 by 68 metres.

BVB Stadion Dortmund Complete Guide: Notable matches

The inauguration match took place back in 1974 in a friendly match between bitter rivals Borussia and Schalke 04, who didn't take a fee for playing in the game due to BVB's hard financial situation. A common theme throughout the years it seems. Schalke won the game 3:0 too, which gives them two directions for poking at their BVB rivals.

But the first Bundesliga game at the Westfalenstadion happened in 1976 but once again, it was Schalke that played and won in it, against Bochum, the nominal hosts who were playing in Dortmund while their ground was being built.

In 1974, four games were played at BVB Stadion Dortmund at the World Cup. The Netherlands faced Sweden, Bulgaria, and Brazil here, while Scotland played Zaire.

At the 2006 World Cup, six games were played at Borussia's stadium. Four in the groups, two in the knockout stages.

Trinidad and Tobago faced Sweden, Germany hosted Poland, Togo and Switzerland played, while Japan played Brazil.

Brazil also faced Ghana in the round of 16. While Germany lost the semis to Italy at Westfalenstadion.

Surprisingly, only one major European club match was played at Westfalen, and that was the 2001 UEFA Cup final between Liverpool and Alaves. But it was a classic, with LFC winning 5:4 after extra time.

BVB Stadion Dortmund complete guide: Location and Travel

Dortmund is located in western Germany, just 62 kilometres away from the closest border with The Netherlands.

It's most likely the most well-known city in that area of the country, the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia. With Bochum 12 kilometres away, Essen 27 kilometres, Duisburg 45 km, Dusseldorf 54 km, Wuppertal 27 km, and Cologne 66 kilometres away, Dortmund is in a highly urban area of the country.

A part of the land known for its industrial history.

Other football-notable places are in a similar vicinity, like Gelsenkirchen (Schalke 04), Leverkusen and Monchengladbach.

Dortmund's international airport is 11 kilometres away from the city centre.

While the main train station is dead-centre in the centre of Dortmund. With six subway lines crossing through the city.

Dortmund's central bus station is in the close vicinity of the main train station too, actually just behind the train tracks.

While in a major urban zone of the country, Dortmund itself is not a massive city, with 586,000 inhabitants.

But the urban area holds 5,302,000 people, and the Rhine-Ruhr metro area is home to 11,300,000 people!

BVB Stadion Dortmund complete guide: Moving around Dortmund

The BVB Stadion Dortmund is just 2.46 kilometres away from the city centre and is hence a great option for those atmosphere-enjoying walks toward the ground on matchday.

The city of Dortmund will roll out the re... green carpet for all the fans visiting for the EURO 2024. So no need to watch the maps on every corner, the green carpet will join the most important areas of the city. The Dortmund Central Station, the Fan Zone, and the Public Viewing area.

The Fan Zone (which will require no tickets for entry) will be located in the southern part of the city centre, at the stone courtyard square of Friedensplatz.

While the Public Viewing Area will be in a green Westfalen Park, which is located a kilometre away to the east of the stadium. Or a kilometre and a half away south from the city centre.

Matches played here will be all the ones played at the BVB Stadion Dortmund, all matches on German national team matchdays, the final, and possibly other ones.

BVB Stadion Dortmund complete guide: Transportation

As a smaller place, the hostels in Dortmund go for €40 per night, rental apartments are double that, hotels can be found at €50, and luxury hotels are around €90 per night. Of course, the prices will increase as the EURO comes closer.

The subway line U46 goes to the BVB Stadion Dortmund, with the station named exactly that - Stadion. But one can also come off on the prior station, Westfallenhalen U.

The U45 subway also passes nearby, with the Remydamm station the closest to the ground. The subway line U42 passes on the other side, west side, with the Theodor-Fliedner-Heim station closest to the stadium.

On the same side, the bus NE8 also operates.

The train line RB59 stops at the south end of the broader stadium park, at the Dortmund Signal-Iduna-Park station.

BVB Stadion Dortmund complete guide: Other sights

The most obvious option for sightseeing in Dortmund is the Borrusseum, the Borussia Dortmund museum. Located within the stadium of course.

The other notable football sight is the Stadion Rote Erde, BVB's first ground. One you also can't miss if you're coming to the BVB Stadion Dortmund, as it's located immediately next to it. Terrace to terrace.

This was the original idea, and the working title for Westfalen was "Twin Stadium." Now BVB II plays its matches here.

The Rote Erde ground is even registered as a monument in the city of Dortmund's list of monuments. That's how much Dortmundians value football.

Cementing its place as one of Germany's best football cities is the German Football Museum. Another one for the "can't miss it" category, as it's located across the street from the central train station.

A minute walk away from there is the Dortmund U-Tower, formerly a brewery, now an art and creativity hub of the city.

While Dortmund holds more football goodies for the explorers. Holding its own Walk of Fame, with 100 stars embedded in the sidewalk, each of them commemorating a significant point in Borussia's history. From its birthplace near Borsigplatz, to the Westfalenstaidon.

Another piece of Dortmund's football history is also located on the ground, next to the sidewalks though. In 2011, then Borussia Dortmund centre-back Neven Subotic stopped his car to celebrate the Bundesliga title with the fans. Climbed on top of the car shirtless and sang with the joyous fans.

Quickly after, the spot was marked as a parking place in BVB colours, but with a catch - "only for Neven Subotic" it said.

Clearly, BVB Stadion Dortmund visit is a must-see location for the football gourmets, as you’ll hardly find a place that lives and breathes football more than this German city.

Signal Iduna Park Stadium Tours

Stadium tours at Signal Iduna Park are conducted throughout the year. All tours provide fans with access to VIP areas, the tunnel, the club museum, the press room and dressing rooms.

There are two types of tour at Signal Iduna Park –

Public tours take place throughout the week where groups of up to 40 people are taken on a tour around the stadium. Private tours can be booked in advance if you would like a more intimate walk around the stadium with a personal guide for you and your party. Naturally, private tours cost more than public ones.

All tours can be provided in either German or English and they are generally very accommodating of any requests at the stadium. Tours can be booked through the official Dortmund website .

Ticket Prices

The ticket prices set by Dortmund are dependent on the seating plan, type of opponent, and competition. There are several categories available.

Category 1 matches (games against top opponents such as Bayern Munich) cost €70 during the 2023-24 season while Category 6 matches (the lowest category offered) cost €35.

Standing tickets across all matches cost €18.50 during the 2023-24 season while the club also offer discounted rates for concessions and disabled supporters.

How to get there by car & where to park?

It is very easy to reach the Signal Iduna Park due to excellent connections with the Autobahns nearby. The stadium is located in the south of the city. The A1 that heads towards Dortmund-Unna junction will be your pick for reaching the stadium from the North. Then, you have to take the A44/B1 to reach the stadium. If you are coming from the East, then you should take the A2 on the way to the Dortmund-Nordost junction. From there, you have to take the B235 until Schwerte before switching to the B1. If you are travelling from the south, the A45 to the Dortmund-Sud junction will be your option. From there, you can take the B54 that heads into the stadium. The A40/B1 is the choice for those coming from the west.

After driving to the stadium, you will encounter several options to park your car. The stadium has more than 10,000 parking spots, while there are more spaces available at Westfalenhalle.

If you do not wish to drive yourself, there is easy connectivity to the Dortmund Hauptbahnhof airport in the form of many taxis. The taxis will cost around €15 and it takes about 10 minutes to reach the stadium. An added advantage would be the presence of many ride possibilities that are operated by the club, who also provide parking options in plenty.

By train or metro

Signal Iduna Park is located in an advantageous position for reaching by a train. The main railway station is about 3 km away from the stadium. The process of finding the right train station is made a lot easier since the closest station is known as the Dortmund Signal Iduna Park. A journey from London will take around seven hours and you will be passing through the likes of Brussels before reaching the city. There are many connections from the likes of Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, and Wolfsburg. After reaching Dortmund, you can easily take a regional train that will take you to the Signal Iduna Park.

Alternatively, you can also pick the U-Bahn tramline. This can be a lot more convenient due to the presence of many stations in the city. If you are taking the tramline, you have to get off at the Westfalenhallen. The lines 45 and 46 are ideal for this purpose. After getting down, you are just five minutes away from reaching the ground. On match days, you can even try using the next stop – Westfalen Stadion – since the walk is even less.

The train services are abundant in number with around 3 to 4 available every hour. The prices are very light in the pocket, as you will be spending around a few euros at the most.

What is it like for visiting supporters?

It is very common for away supporters to be put inside the corner of a ground, but that is not the case with Signal Iduna Park, where you will be sitting in the central section of the North stand. This is a remarkable touch that will impress supporters straight away, but the ticket allocation usually ranges from 2000 to 3000 – and it is also dependent on the opposition.

The view from here is excellent, but the best bit about Dortmund away is typically the atmosphere. The noise that comes from one end of the stadium inside the Yellow Wall is something that all football fans should try and experience at least once if they can.

Pubs for Away Fans

Germany is one of the renowned destinations for beer and it is not a surprise that many pubs are available in town for you to enjoy just before the game or even after the game. The top pubs in Dortmund are:

• Strobels Bar – Strobelallee 50, 44139 Dortmund, Germany
• Manhattan Sportsbar Dortmund – Von-der-Tann-Straße 13, 44143 Dortmund, Germany
• Ratsschänke – Prinzenstraße 7, 44135 Dortmund, Germany

What’s the Signal Iduna Park like?

The Signal Iduna Park was opened in 1974 to serve as one of the host stadiums for the World Cup. As a result, this is a stadium that enjoys a lot of history and you will be able to feel the same when you visit the ground, which was previously known as the Westfalenstadion. This historically rich ground manages to stay quite unique with a rectangular shape, which is quite different from the bowl style adopted by many European grounds during this period. There are also separate stands that are very reminiscent of the British-style stadiums.

The key sections of the stadium are:

Nord Stand – This is a steep section of the stadium. It is capable of providing very close views of the action due to this incline. An advantage of this stand would be the presence of a cantilevered roof. This is also the section where away supporters are placed.

Sud Stand – This is easily one of the iconic aspects of the Signal Iduna Park and it is widely known as the Yellow Wall. The stand has been able to pick up this name as a result of being the largest single-tier section in a European stadium. This section alone has the capacity to hold 24,500 fans. In many ways, this stand directly goes with Liverpool’s Kop stand – including the rituals like singing ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ before a game.

West Stand – Regarded as the main section of the stadium, the West stand holds all the changing rooms, dugouts, and tunnels through which players make their way to the pitch. This stand is also where fans with hospitality tickets are accommodated.

Ost Stand – This is the section of Signal Iduna Park that comes with executive boxes and stands that are very close to the sides of the pitch. There can be a maximum of 17,000 supporters in this section alone.

In order to be eligible for the privileges, fans must make sure that they have all the necessary documents to prove their disability.

The discounted tickets are also one of the ways followed by Dortmund to encourage disabled fans to visit the matches. The price for a severely handicapped ticket will be €16.8 while an accompanying person has to pay €39.90.

Signal Iduna Park

Club: Borussia Dortmund | Opening: 1974 | Capacity: 81,359 (25,000 standing)

History and description

Signal Iduna Park, before 2005 called Westfalenstadion, was built to serve as a playing venue for the 1974 World Cup.

Until then Dortmund had played their home matches at Stadion Rote Erde, and while an expansion of that stadium was first considered, in the end was chosen to build a new stadium all together.

Westfalenstadion officially opened on the 2nd of April 1974 with a friendly between Dortmund and Schalke 04. The stadium back then only consisted of one tier that could hold 54,000 spectators, of which 37,000 standing.

The stadium stood out because of its rectangular shape in a time when most large stadiums were still bowl-shaped, and its four separate stands served as inspiration for a new generation of stadiums. Ibrox Stadium ‘s redevelopment in the late 1970s was, for example, largely based on Westfalenstadion.

During the 1974 World Cup, Westfalenstadion hosted three first round group matches and the second round group match between Holland and Brazil (2-0).

The stadium remained largely unchanged until the early 1990s, when the increased successes of Dortmund grew the need for expansion.

Works started with the conversion of part of the standing areas into seats, actually reducing capacity, but then continued in 1995 with the construction of a second tier on top of the East and West Stand.

Shortly after, building works started on a second tier for the North and South Stand, which were completed in 1999. The stadium could then hold 68,600 spectators, and the 25,000-capacity South Stand had become the largest terrace of Europe.

In 2001, Westfalenstadion hosted the UEFA Cup final between Liverpool and Alavés (5-4).

The redevelopment of the stadium was completed between 2002 and 2003 when all four corners got closed up with stands. Two years later, in 2005, the stadium changed name to Signal Iduna Park as a result of a sponsorship deal.

In 2006, Signal Iduna Park was one of the playing venues of the 2006 World Cup . Temporarily renamed and with a reduced capacity of 67,000 seats, the stadium hosted four group matches, a round of 16 match, and the semi-final between Germany and Italy (0-2).

How to get to Signal Iduna Park

Signal Iduna Park is located in the south of Dortmund near the Westfalenhallen conference centre. Dortmund’s city centre and main rail station are about 3 kilometres away.

The stadium can be reached by car from either the B1 (north, east, and west), or B54 (south). If coming from the B1, take exit Im Rabenloh. The stadium lies a few hundred metres to the south. If arriving from the B54, take exit An Der Buschmühle. Drive east until you will turn with a curve onto the Strobelallee and head straight ahead until you see the stadium.

Signal Iduna Park can be easily reached by train from Dortmund’s main railway station in the centre. In just 5 minutes you will arrive at Dortmund Signal Iduna Park station, from where it is a short walk to the stadium. Trains typically run three to four times an hour.

Alternatively, you can take the U-Bahn from the centre and get off at station Westfalenhallen, from where it is a 5-minute walk to the stadium. Both line 45 and 46 serve the station.

On matchdays, there is a special service that will continue to station Stadion, which is even closer to the stadium.

Address: Strobelallee 50, 44139 Dortmund

Eat, drink, and sleep near Signal Iduna Park

Signal Iduna Park is located next to conference centre Westfalenhallen, which means that there are quite a few hotels close to the stadium. Mercure Hotel Dortmund Messe is located right across the stadium and gets good reviews. Arcadia Grand Hotel and Steinberger Dortmund are other options. Expect to pay over €100 per night though. Hotel Gildenhof and B&B Hotel Dortmund Messe are cheaper alternatives. Click here for all hotels near Signal Iduna Park.

As the stadium is easy to reach from Dortmund’s city centre, you can just as well stay there. Dortmund is not the most interesting city, but there is more entertainment around than near the stadium. There are more cheaper hotels in the centre as well. Click here for the options.

If you are planning to stay more than one day or want to join the nightlife, Düsseldorf or Bochum (for nightlife) might be better options to find accomodation. S-Bahn line S1 and regional trains directly connect both cities with Dortmund’s main railway station.

There is a nice beer garden next to the stadium which is great if you pass by for a tour on non-matchdays.

Westfalenstadion is the legendary home stadium of every neutrals’ favourite German side, Borussia Dortmund. Officially the ground is known as Signal Iduna Park for sponsorship purposes in a deal set to last until 2021.

The 80,000 capacity makes it the largest stadium in Germany and the third biggest in the top-flight of football (behind Camp Nou and the Bernabéu) .

Borussia Dortmund Stadium Guide

Signal iduna park history.

Borussia Dortmund’s Westfalenstadion was originally built as a playing venue for the 1974 Fifa World Cup with enough room for 54,000 supporters.

The first match was held on April 2nd against rivals Schalke 04 in a Charity Game as Borussia Dortmund were in a poor financial position at the time.

The first “official” match occurred 5 days later on the 7th of April and this time the home side managed to scrape a point against Bayer Uerdingen.

The newly built Westphalia stadium hosted 4 group matches of the World Cup including three games of the Netherlands including an intriguing clash against Brazil.

After the world cup, the stadium became pretty much unchanged for the next 18 years until the early 1990s when some of the seating was converted to standing areas in 1992.

Spurred on by a Bundesliga tittle in the 1991-1992 season and a runners up place in the UEFA Cup the following season the club’s revenues began to grow which gave Dortmund the financial platform to redevelop parts of the stadium which would eventually occur in three distinct phases.

Phase 1 (1995-1997) saw establishment of an upper tier brining the capacity up to 55,000, Phase 2 (1998-1999) continued the creation of a uniform upper tier and remodelling of terraced south stand capable of holding 25,000 visitors, and Phase 3 (2002-2003) saw the corners of the stadium filled in resulting in the current 80,000 plus capacity .

For the 2006 World cup finals a modification took place which focused on additional VIP boxes, improved disabled access, electronic ticketing and refitted changing rooms.

Fifa World Cup Stadium Dortmund hosted four group matches and a legendary semi final between the home side, Germany and Italy with the Italians winning 2 nil in extra time following a goalless draw at the end of 90 minutes.

The away section is housed within the central column of the Nord Tribune slightly towards the right hand-side, and whether through a conscious decision or not, away supporters aren’t confined to the corner as they so often are in football stadiums across Europe.

Appearing to be a nice touch by Dortmund at first, one you’ve had a glimpse of the famous Yellow Wall Kop Stand you may be feeling angry your club’s stadium hasn’t got anything like it.

The ticket allocation is usually around 2,000 – 3,000 depending on the opposition, and seating is distributed across both tiers of the north stand between sections: 08, 60, 61, 70, 71 and 75. You can cross referee the seating plan above to see where you will be sitting.

Best Pubs near ground

One of the most popular pre-match hang-outs is the large Strobels Bar located north-east of the stadium which serves beer and has a large outdoor area. Inside the ground you can also purchase pints and take them into the stadium which really does help with the atmosphere!

As for drinking either before or after the match in the city centre the highest rated pub amongst visiting football fans is continually the amusingly named Brauhaus Wenkers. Located centrally it has a decent selection of local pilsners and multiple TV screens showing the football.

Food - Places to eat

Around the business park where Signal Iduna is location there are a few dining options before the game such as Steakhouse Rodizio next to Theodor-Fliedner-Heim tram station and the NRW Cocktails bar near to the Westfalenhallen stop. North of the stadium there is also the likes of Mongos Asian restaurant,  Das Allegro and Restaurant de Luca.

Within the stadium itself Strobels Dortmund restaurant comes highly rated and the numerous fast-food stalls and outlets will ensure you don’t starve. Plus you can drink beer in the stands, so what more could you possibly want?

Borussia Dortmund Club Shop

Borussia Dortmund operate several fanshops throughout the city in addition to their very own International Online Store which allows fans the opportunity to purchase goods 24/7 from the comfort of their own home. The most popular one for most fans is located in the north-east corner of Signal Iduna Park stadium across two floors.
