Background adidas "Home Ground"

The “Home Ground” building complex is an extension of the adidas campus and was built by DFB supplier adidas in 2021 for the national soccer team according to their needs - and special emphasis was placed on sustainability. The modern campus is home to 15 wooden bungalows, each of which can accommodate up to four players. However, the Home Ground is not only available to the national team, but is also used by other athletes as accommodation and by employees as a conference center. In June 2021, the “Home Ground” was inaugurated by the German national team as temporary accommodation during UEFA EURO 2020.

A look back: First visit to the Home Ground 2021

In preparation for UEFA EURO 2020, the DFB team visited the “Home Ground” for the first time in June 2021. A highlight for many Herzogenaurach residents was certainly the autograph session on site. Many children and young people from Herzogenaurach's clubs and schools as well as adults from Lebenshilfe were overjoyed at the chance to see their idols live (photos: Alexander Muck, Fränkischer Tag). On this occasion, the Golden Book of the town of Herzogenaurach was also signed by the players and the then director Oliver Bierhoff (photos: Philipp Reinhard).
