[3] The stadium, built by German architect Paul Bonatz, was a donation from local industrialist Willy Sachs to the City of Schweinfurt.

During the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, the stadium served as training ground for the Tunisia national football team.

In the 2008–09 season, nearby football club TSV Großbardorf had to move to Schweinfurt due to Regionalliga legislations on stadium capacity.

[13][14] The stadium complex consists of the main field with a capacity of 15,060 (the actual Sachs-Stadion) and several additional courts for training and youth matches, including an artificial turf pitch.

[15] The main stadium offers a covered grandstand, hosting 860 seats, and standing rooms around the residual circumference, which is planted with two rows of linden trees.

[16] In addition, Schweinfurt's large industry contributed an electronic scoreboard, that was replaced in 2022 by a 30 sqm LED screen.
