Competition venues


The competitions of the 54th World Roller Figure Skating Championships were carried out at two venues: the Schauenberg Hall at the FT-Sportpark and the Messe Freiburg. Both venues are only a short ride away from Freiburg's city center: World Championships of short distances!

Schauenberg Hall in the FT-Sportpark
Schwarzwaldstrasse 181, 79117 Freiburg

The FT-Sportpark is the home of the Freiburger Turnerschaft of 1844 e.V, the club which had the honour of hosting the 2009 World Roller Figure Skating Championships. The Schauenberg Hall is an integral part of the FT-Sportpark and, as one of the few pure roller skating sports halls, offers the ideal setting for competitive roller skating. Thanks to the Sports Federations decision to establish the national and state training center in Freiburg, the top athletes train regularly in the FT-Sportpark.

The Schauenberg Hall has on numerous occasions demonstrated its suitability for bigger events: nine German Championships and a multitude of performances of the pre-Christmas Fairytale on wheels have taken place in here in recent years. The Schauenberg Hall with its seating capacity of 800 is the smaller of the two competition venues of the 54th World Roller Figure Skating Championships, where the competitions of the Juniors as well as the Inliners and the obligatory heats of the senior class will be carried out.

The easiest way to get to the FT-Sportpark from Freiburg’s main train station or city center is with tram line no. 1 to "Littenweiler", getting out at the stop "Hasemannstrasse", from where it is only a 200 meter walk.

Messe Freiburg
Hermann-Mitsch-Strasse 3, 79108 Freiburg

The larger of the two venues, the Messe Freiburg, with its capacity for 3,200 spectators, offers the ideal setting for the competitions of the senior class and groups. The Messe Freiburg with its excellent connection to public transportation offers the ideal infrastructure and is very much prepared for the rush of athletes and spectators from around the world. The hall 2 of the Messe Freiburg will transform into a sports arena with a fantastic atmosphere.

The Messe Freiburg very easy to get to with public transportation: from the main train station, you can either take the S-Bahn to "Breisach" or bus no. 11 to "Einsteinstrasse", getting out at the stop "Messe", from where you only have a short walk to the venue.
