Stadium
In 1934 the club built its present home The Moselstadion. The Moselstadion is set in the midst of a sports site with several sports fields and tennis courts surrounding it. The stadium holds a maximum of 10,254 spectators with approximately 2,000 seats and terracing for a further 8,000 spectators, of which 2,000 spaces are undercover. The stadium has been gradually improved since it was built culminating in the erecting of floodlight masts in 1998 in time for the DFB-Pokal Semi-Final against Duisburg.
The stadium no longer conforms to the DFL licensing regulations and there are plans for a new, modern stadium in Trier, however following the relegation of the club to the Oberliga Südwest these plans are currently on hold.
