The Städtisches Stadion an der Grünwalder Straße

The Grünwalder Stadion, as the Städtisches Stadion an der Grünwalder Straße is called for short, is the 3rd biggest stadium in Munich. Initially host to 1860 München only, Bayern München played there from 1926 to 1972, when the Olympiastadion was finished. Since 1860's stint in the fourth division, they play their home games in the stadium again. Fun fact: The Monty Python sketch The Philosophers' Football Match was filmed in the stadium.

The only historic part remaining is one of the curves, in the west, which is terraced and looks quite nice. On the north side, there is a covered all-seater stand along the whole length of the pitch, while the actual main stand, on the south side, is much smaller and flanked by terraces. On the east side, towards Grünwalder Straße, there are newly built terraces.

1860 München supporters are located in the Westkurve, visiting supporters on the east side (terraces in blocks P and Q, seats in block A).
