Veltins-Arena (Schalke)

The Veltins-Arena is the modern, iconic home of FC Schalke 04 — one of German football's largest clubs by fanbase. With over 62,000 capacity, it is one of Germany's biggest stadiums, featuring a retractable roof and sliding pitch. Schalke's time in the 2. Bundesliga has been a shocking fall from grace for a club that reached the Champions League semi-finals in 2011. The Ruhr derby with local rivals BVB is one of European football's most intense rivalries.
