What to expect from the Schwarzwald Stadion crowd?

Schwarzwald Stadion is a venue in Freiburg

To say that SC Freiburg's fans are passionate is a bit of an understatement! They are proud of their club, and their more recent stability in recent years! There is also a sense that they really enjoy coming to the Schwarzwald Stadion. There is a new stadium in early stages of development and the fans know they will soon have to say goodbye to their old faithful stadium. The fans are full of enthusiasm about where the club is going as well as very welcoming to visitors!

The venue including the SC Freiburg fans are amazing! You can definitely feel that you are far from Germany's metropolises, it already feels like a visit of Germany's countryside when driving into Freiburg. Super friendly locals, peaceful but great atmosphere and a very iconic stadium promise a great football experience. Freiburg fans never back down, they will always cheer for their team even being 0:3 down. When in the area you should definitely consider visiting, the lion's den is always on fire!

Freiburg aren't known as a troublesome bunch, though caution is always recommended if near the away end. The best atmosphere is to be found in the Nordtribune, the oldest and most loved stand, so if you want to get involved, that is the place to go. There are standing areas directly next to the guest sector, which is always asking for trouble, but policing of derby games - particularly with Stuttgart - is robust so the threat is minimal.
