The current stadium complex is composed of three sections dating from different periods. The core building (1931) was designed by Otto Ernst Schweitzer; the outside sheath (1959) is by Theodor Schöll, and the roofing (1986) was devised by Erich Frantl as a suspended frame structure spanning 277 x 233 metres, considered one of the biggest of its kind worldwide. The elastic steel roof moreover excels due to special innovations for its load-carrying system and superlative formal standards.
