WaldstadionThe Commerzbank-Arena (also historically known as Waldstadion) is a 52,000 seat stadium in Frankfurt, Germany that is primarily used for soccer and American football. It is the home of the Eintracht Frankfurt and Frankfurt Galaxy. The Waldstadion was first opened in 1925 and during World War II it was also used for political events.
It has been named "Commerzbank-Arena" since July 2005. During the 2006 World Cup, the stadium will be called "FIFA WM Stadion Frankfurt" (in English, "Frankfurt World Cup Stadium"). Large modifications have been made for the tournament with the stadium being nearly completely rebuilt and modernized. Now it is one of Germany's biggest stadiums and there have already been some important events in last year, such as the finale of the Confederations Cup.
