History

The earliest stadium on this site was known the "Städtisches Stadion" and was opened on 29 May 1928. [1] [2] It was opened as a multi-purpose sports venue, featuring a playing field and an athletics track. [1]

After the establishment of the German Democratic Republic, the stadium was completely rebuilt in 1950 over a 4-month period. [3] The stadium was opened on 20 August 1950 and was named "Otto Grotewohl Stadium", in honour of the then East German Prime Minister, Otto Grotewohl. [1] Between 1986 and 1992, the stadium was subject to large-scale renovations, and the stadium was renamed to Erzgebirgsstadion in 1991. [1] The stadium has since been redeveloped in 2010, and again in 2017. [1]

Fußball Club Erzgebirge Aue e.V., commonly known as simply FC Erzgebirge Aue or Erzgebirge Aue, is a German football club based in Aue-Bad Schlema, Saxony. The former East German side was a founding member of the 3. Liga in 2008–09, after being relegated from the 2. Bundesliga in 2007–08.

The English champions were ultimately defeated in the semi-finals by the eventual runners-up, Milan of Italy, after being highly touted to win the competition and dominate European football for many years like Real Madrid before them, with the "Busby Babes" having an average age of only 22.
