Goal at Schalke

One of the most important German soccer clubs: FC Schalke 04. With taut roots in the former mining and steel region. And training grounds that today present themselves as heterogeneous and confusing. The concept: successive reordering of the grounds to become a befitting and attractive place. With a new fan and visitor centre by schulz & schulz architects that serves as the central pivot of the redesign: a "Goal on Schalke". Opposite the "Wall of thousand Friends" and as a kick-off for a visit at Schalke. And inviting gate to the centre of future club life: the "Schalke Promenade". Flanked by two wide paths, the Sport and culture strip winds as a blue carpet through the area.
