Städtisches Stadion an der Grünwalder Straße (also known as Grünwalder Stadion and Sechzger Stadion) is a multi-purpose stadium in Munich, Germany. It was built in 1911 and was the home ground for 1860 Munich until 1995. Local rival Bayern Munich also played in the stadium from 1926 until 1972, when they moved to the new Olympiastadion. Nowadays it is the home ground of the second teams and the (U–19 teams) of Bayern and 1860. As of the start of the 2013–14 Bundesliga season, FC Bayern Munich (women) also play their home matches at the ground.
Since their relegation from 2.Bundesliga to Regionalliga Bayern at the end of the 2016/2017 season it is once again home to 1860 Munich.
The largest crowd was 58,560 in 1948 at a game between TSV 1860 Munich and 1. FC Nürnberg.
The famous Monty Python sketch The Philosophers' Football Match, though pretending to be in the Olympiastadion, was filmed in this stadium.
