History

In 1930, the sports facility was "On The D'Ham", as the area was still called then inaugurated. After the Second World War, the plant received the name Moselstadion. In 1998 on the occasion of the DFB Cup semi-final match against MSV Duisburg was erected floodlights. After the rise of Eintracht Trier in the NHL in the 2002-03 season, many repairs were needed. In addition, the main grandstand expanded and built a club house and covered the back straight. Due to the rise in visitor numbers and inadequate safety standards of the stadium but it came to heated discussions about a major expansion or new construction of the stadium. Since the descent of the association in 2005 and later in the regional league for one season in the league, the corresponding plans are deferred.
