It was built in 1938 and had a long history of hockey games. The greatest event was the match against Düsseldorfer EG in the 1990s when the DEG was still the biggest player in German hockey. The stadium was then filled with over 10,500 people.

Current manager of the rink is ex-NHL player Bob Sullivan




Demolition and future plans


The Eisstadion am Friedrichspark in Mannheim has been scheduled for demolition for some time. Originally planned for the summer of 2022, the demolition was delayed due to the discovery of protected wall lizards and additional bureaucratic hurdles. According to recent reports from 2024, discussions with the state government are still ongoing, further postponing the start of the demolition.
The stadium, which was home to the Adler Mannheim from 1938 to 2005, has a rich history and was the venue for many memorable games and concerts, including performances by the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin. After the demolition, the site is planned to be transformed into a multifunctional sports and leisure facility, which will host various sporting and cultural events.
