Contents
The arena complex includes four different skating areas, linked by a corridor of ice - the main arena, which is a standard size Ice Hockey rink, a smaller indoor room used for curling and Hockey training, and an outside area split into two - a large oval shaped track open to the public, with another Ice Hockey rink in the centre, rarely open to the public. There is also a large indoor bar and a small outdoor snack area. The price depends on what season it is, with an adult pass in the high season costing 6 euros, and 4 in the low season.
The large car park to the front of the building also serves as a major showground for events coming to the city, with the largest being the annual Dippemess funfair every April.

History
The building was designed by Richard Heil and Werner Deyle. When it opened it was the second ice skating rink in Frankfurt, the first was close to the Waldstadion. An older permanent ice skating rink existed until World War II in the Palmengarten. Today it is the only ice skating rink in Frankfurt, some other exist in the metropolitan area.
