At the so-called 'AWD Arena' the local sports venues in Hannover, Germany, Niedersachsen, the name of it can be read from above.

It's written in white letters on blue at the chairs.
It's only readable from inside of the arena - or even from above.


The AWD-Arena (stylized as AWDarena, known as Niedersachsenstadion until 2002) is a football stadium in the district Calenberger Neustadt in Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany, and competition venue of the German Bundesliga football club Hannover 96.

The original 86,000-seat stadium was completed in 1954 and has since been rebuilt several times for various major football events. Today it has 49,000 covered seats. During the World Cup 2006 the stadium was named FIFA World Cup Stadium, Hanover.

In 2002, Hannover 96 leased the name right at the Lower Saxony Stadium for five years to the Financial Services AWD. In 2007 the contract was extended for another five years to June 2012.

The architect of the stadium was 'Schulitz & Partner Architects'.

There had been several international football tournaments in the stadium: 1974 FIFA World Cup, 1988 European Championship, 2006 FIFA World Cup
