History and description<\/h3>\n

The Volkswagen Arena was built between May 2001 and December 2002 and replaced Wolfsburg’s old VFL Stadion. The stadium officially opened on 13 December 2002. The first match, between Wolfsburg and Stuttgart (1-2), was played two days later.<\/p>\n

How to get to the Volkswagen Arena<\/h3>\n

The Volkswagen Arena is located just north-east of Wolburg\u2019s main railway station and city centre. The walk to the stadium, during which you cross the railroad tracks and a canal, will take about 15 to 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

If arriving by car, the Volkswagen Arena is best reached from the A39 (which connects with the A2 just south of Wolfsburg). Take exit 3 Wolfsburg-West, follow the L321 into the city, and, after having passed the railway station, take the ramp left to Vorsfelde \/ Nordstadt. Take the first exit after the bridge (Berliner Br\u00fccke). The stadium will be clearly visible from the bridge.<\/span><\/p>\n
