Cult history at a glance

As of July 1, 2026, the stadium has been named “Plutos Stadion am Bieberer Berg” as part of a naming partnership initially set to last three years. Stadiongesellschaft Bieberer Berg GmbH has secured a strong partner in Plutos Vermögensverwaltung AG, which will serve as the stadium’s namesake for this historic venue going forward.

Since March 2021, what has never changed for many is official again. To mark its 100th birthday on May 21, the stadium was given back its original name with the support of Energieversorgung Offenbach, Städtische Sparkasse Offenbach am Main, Stadtwerke Offenbach and Gemeinnützige Baugesellschaft Offenbach and is now called Stadion am Bieberer Berg again.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Sparda-Bank Hessen waived the naming rights it had acquired from April 2020 until further notice and temporarily renamed the stadium "Kommt-Gesund-Wieder-Stadion". This was also linked to a fundraising campaign for a "thank you celebration" for all employees in systemically important professions in Offenbach.

A new pitch will be laid in March 2016. The pitch is the only surface in the stadium that was left untouched when the stadium was rebuilt in 2011.

OFC became champions of the Regionalliga Südwest with a ten-point lead over second-placed 1. FC Saarbrücken. Unfortunately, both relegation matches against 1. FC Magdeburg were lost, meaning that OFC continued to play in the Regionalliga Südwest in the 2015/2016 season.

Refusal of the third division license for the 2013/2014 season due to violations of the licensing rules. Subsequently relegated to the Regionalliga Südwest.

Construction of the stadium is completed at the start of the 2012/2013 season and the "Offenbacher Fußballclub Kickers 1901 e.V." (OFC) moves into its new home ground.

The city council of Offenbach decides to build a new stadium. The naming rights to the future arena are sold to Sparda-Bank Hessen for EUR 5 million and a term of 10 years. The construction company Bremer AG is awarded the contract to build an English-style stadium with four stand-alone stands and a capacity of more than 20,500 spectators by 2012. The total costs amount to 25 million euros.

As part of a special investment program "Sportland Hessen 2005 - 2007", the state of Hesse is providing 1.2 million euros for the renovation work that has become urgently necessary following promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga. During the 2006/2007 summer break, the stadium will be given a new pitch and pitch heating, and the south-east stand will receive a new cabin wing.

Club crisis: The city considers selling or demolishing the stadium. This is prevented by the Offenbach Post's "Save Bieberer Berg" campaign and protests by the fans. One year later, the OFC takes over the stadium on a leasehold basis. In the 1990s, the roof of the main stand is repaired, an OFC logo is added to the south-east stand on the initiative of the fan club, an electric scoreboard is installed and the standing area is extended.

The OFC wins the DFB Cup. The south-east stand is built on the Bieber side, which has been called the "Glaabsbräu stand" since July 1, 2019.

Construction of the new main stand and tubular steel stand on the Schießhaustor side as well as a new floodlight system with two masts. Due to their brightness, which is rare in Europe, the floodlights are dubbed "Offenbach's landmark". The Kickers are promoted to the 1st Bundesliga for the first time in 1968.

10,000 additional seats are created by the construction of a new roofed standing stand opposite the main stand. Also: Inauguration of the first floodlight system with four masts. Three years later, it is dismantled again because it has become unusable due to the relocation of the pitch, which was necessary for the conversion of the seated stand.

The coach at the time, Paul Osswald, travels to England especially to select the right grass seeds for the new pitch. The stadium turns green for the first time!

The stadium on the former parade ground, Bieberer Berg, is opened. The wooden main stand holds 1,200 spectators.
