Ice sports arena
A 400 m speed skating indoor arena opened on 17 November 1986 and was the first covered speed skating oval in the world, one day prior to Thialf in Heerenveen which hosted the World Allround Speed Skating Championships for Men later that season. There is another hall that is primarily used for ice hockey and is the home arena of Eisbären Berlin. That arena holds 4,695 people.
