England's national team - Kane and Co. set up their European Championship quarters in Thuringia
Top striker Harry Kane and his teammates from the England national soccer team will be staying in Weimarer Land in Thuringia during the European Championship. "With only one official venue - the arena in Leipzig - East Germany is only moderately represented in the European Championships. It is therefore all the more important that Thuringia can create another important hotspot for soccer enthusiasm in the region with the base camp in Blankenhain," said Economics Minister Wolfgang Tiefensee (SPD) in a press release on Wednesday.
The ministry said that great things had been achieved behind the scenes together with the golf resort and the Thuringia state development company. The necessary framework conditions that must be created in the coming weeks include the preparation of the local sports field in accordance with DFB and UEFA requirements, the establishment of a media center in Blankenhain Castle, the creation and implementation of a security concept and marketing measures. Tiefensee said that the state would provide the funds, which are expected to amount to one million euros.
At the European Championship tournament, the English team will face Serbia on June 16 (9 p.m.) in Gelsenkirchen, Denmark on June 20 (6 p.m.) in Frankfurt and Slovenia on June 25 (9 p.m.) in Cologne.
