It was approved for 8,000 spectators. It was the homeground of different clubs from St. Pölten. The name was derived from the Voith company that owned the property. ==History== In 1949, a number of footballers approached the general management of the Voith company to found a company [[sports club]] (BSV Voith). The first ''BSV Voith'' games were still played in Stattersdorf, but in the spring of 1950 construction of the Voithplatz began. The company Voith provided the ground. In spring 1951 the first match was held. (BSV Voith vs. SC Rabenstein 18:1) <ref>Erich Auer, Gerhard Weber, Helmut Lackinger: ''Die Wölfe.
