Overview

About Borussia-Park

Borussia-Park is Borussia Mönchengladbach's 54,057-capacity home, opened in 2004. Its character comes from German terrace culture: the Nordkurve's standing blocks (13–18) hold 14,079 fans and generate the matchday atmosphere, while the steep seated bowl, split into an Unterrang (lower tier, 35,053 seats) and Oberrang (upper tier, 18,989 seats), offers clean sightlines everywhere. Capacity peaks at 60,250 with both ends terraced and falls to roughly 46,000 in all-seated UEFA mode.

Borussia-Park is the home of Borussia Mönchengladbach, built between November 2002 and July 2004 at a cost of around €86.9 million on the site of a former British army barracks, replacing the beloved but outdated Bökelbergstadion. Designed by Planungsgruppe B and built by Hochtief AG, its cantilever-roofed bowl holds 54,057 for Bundesliga matches thanks to its famous terraces: the Nordkurve's standing blocks (13 to 18) alone hold 14,079 fans, and when the Südkurve's lower tier is also converted to standing the capacity reaches its 60,250 maximum. For UEFA competitions every area must be seated, which reduces capacity to roughly 46,000. Business seats and lounges run along the west side, and an adjoining 131-room hotel opened for the 2018/19 season alongside the club museum and fan store. The ground missed out on 2006 World Cup matches despite its size, but it hosted fixtures at the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup and remains one of the best-attended stadiums in Germany relative to its city's size.

Logistics

Getting there

Transport

The stadium lies on the western edge of Mönchengladbach. Take a train to Mönchengladbach Hauptbahnhof, then bus line 017 from Europaplatz (about 15 minutes) or the dedicated matchday shuttle from Platz der Republik, which runs every five minutes from three hours before kick-off; both are free with a valid match ticket. Drivers follow the A61 to the Mönchengladbach-Wanlo exit. Bags larger than A4 size are not permitted into the stadium.

The area

The ground sits in a suburban area west of the city with little around it beyond parking and approach roads, so most supporters eat and drink in Mönchengladbach's centre before heading out. The city is compact, with a pedestrianised old town and a good range of traditional pubs and restaurants near the station.
