    Olympiastadion: Berlin

    It's the oldest German stadion, orginally built for the olympic games in 1936. Nazi architecture if you want to be exact. :D It was changed a bit in the last years though.

    Stadium: Dortmund

    The stadium in Dortmund is actually by far the biggest stadium in Germany (80.000) but FIFA only allows 60.000 people during the World Cup. Quite sad, if you ask me!

    This stadium was built last year and has a capacity of 50.000. And it has a roof so none of you can blame the weather... :D

    The Fritz Walter Stadium has a Capacity of 48.500. In my opinion it's the ugliest Bundesliga stadium but you have to decide that on your own of course. ;)

    Yay. Now we come to my home ;) The stadium has a capacity of 50.374 but I guess it will be less during the World Cup. Very nice stadium in the city.

    Once again, an older stadium with well...I don't like it that much because of the running track and one of the smallest stadiums. But ok, it has 46.738 places. Although again it will be less due to the FIFA rules.

    thanks for posting the pics. the westfalenstadion is one of my all time favorite football grounds. that place is what every football stadium should be modelled against in my opinion. on the other hand, any stadium with a big running track sucks for football. takes the atmosphere away somewhat and doesnt do much for your view either! i think germany has some great stadiums though. the allianz arena is another great new stadium.

    yeah. I completely agree. Westfalenstadion is great, especially its atmosphere when 80.000 people are singing etc.

    I hate running tracks too. The football clubs finally realise that either, Stuttgart for example will change the stadium probably and remove the running track in the future. Running tracks suck! :mad:
