District
Waldhof
A northern district between the Kaefertal forest and the harbour, with a working-class tradition, its own train station and the SV Waldhof stadium on Alsenweg.
Waldhof is deeply rooted in Mannheim's industrial history. The company housing estates around the former Boehringer Mannheim works, the SV Waldhof Mannheim football stadium and the Waldhof train station define its image. The district mixes its working-class heritage with a strong migration history and a young, changing population.
