Since 1 July 2020, the Frankfurt arena has been known as Deutsche Bank Park – a name which harks back to its origins. The idea of turning what used to be a military shooting range by the Oberforsthaus into a sports park first came about around a century ago. Plans were initially drawn up to use the 42 hectares of land to house the stadium itself, with a capacity of 37,000, as well as a gymnastics and festival area, a velodrome and a swimming pool.
