The Robert-Schlienz Stadium
This stadium, offering 5000 places, all standing, was home for the VfB II until 2008, when they moved to the larger Gazi-Stadion auf der Waldau. It currently hosts the home games of VfB's A and B youth teams. Initially known as the "Amateur-Stadion" (German for amateur stadium), the Robert-Schlienz Stadium got its name in honour of the well-known VfB player Robert Schlienz, after his death in June 1995. The first game played here was in the 2nd round of the youth championship, on June 25 1995, between the VfB's B youth team and Eintracht Frankfurt's.

“In their eyes I have seen
the pin men of madness in marathon trim
race round the track of the stadium pupil.”
