The blue and white seats in the main stand sit beneath a wave-shaped roof.

Willem II returned to the top flight in the early 1990s, and the old concrete stadium built after the war was torn down in 1992. The present ground opened on May 31, 1995, designed by Buro Bollen. It replaced the 1948 facility, which had featured a running track, with a modern all-seater arena that lost some capacity but gained a restaurant and business lodges. The club bought the stadium from the city in 2021 for €6.9 million, and while phased safety renovations continued through 2024, plans to extend the KingSide stand were abandoned due to structural limits.

The club's official website lists the capacity at 15,220, though other sources cite 14,637. The venue hosted Netherlands national team matches in 1994 and 1996, and FIFA U-20 World Cup fixtures in 2005. It was renamed Koning Willem II Stadion in 2009 to honour the king who had strong ties to the city, though the name change carried no commercial sponsorship attached.
