 The Rhein Energie Stadion is a reconstruction of the former ‘Müngersdorfer Stadion’, which, when completed in 1975 was the only completely covered stadium in Germany. 

Work started on the new stadium in the summer of 2001 and was compled at the end of 2004. 

Today's ground is home to the 1st Bundesliga team FC Köln.   

During the 2006 World Cup, England and Sweden drew 2-2 in Cologne, as a result both teams made it through to the Round of 16.

The 1.FC Koeln was one of the founding members of the Bundesliga in 1963, sadly they relegated for the first time in 1998 and twice again thereafter.

Currently in the 2. Bundesliga, the club has mapped out a ‘masterplan’ to return to the Bundesliga, which nationally earned them wide-spread support, as many people feel that FC Koeln simply does not belong in the 2nd Bundesliga.

Cologne (pop. 1mil.) is located on the River Rhine and is known for its imposing twin-spired cathedral. 

The city has good shopping and leisure facilities, as well as plenty of museums and churches. 

Highlights include the chocolate museum, the old town (lots of breweries – Kölsh is the local beer) and the Köln Arena (Germany’s biggest indoor arena).  Nearby, the theme park Phantasialand (20mins) is also worth a visit.

The best way to get around in Cologne or to the stadium is to catch a tram.

At Neumarkt, which is approximately 1200m south west from the central railway station (Hauptbahnhof), look out for tram no.1 (direction Junkersdorf). During the day, tram no. 1, runs at a frequency of every 5 mins, directly to entrance of the stadium.  

If you are travelling from the Hauptbahnhof there are trams no. 16 and 19 which will stop at Neumarkt (head for Wesseling, Klettenberg or Bonn), where you can change for tram no.1.

During match days no changing will be required, as special trams are laid on which will take fans directly from the Hauptbahnhof to the Rhine Energy Stadium, the journey time is approx. 20-25mins.

 

Guided tours, which documents the history and the future of the stadium, are available every working day except during match or event days, subject to pre arrangement.
