Gotthelfhalle Thun
Thun, Switzerland
The Gotthelfhalle Thun stands on Sustenstrasse, a municipal facility owned by the City of Thun. It is a modest sports hall, primarily a home for handball rather than a grand arena. The modern building replaced an older structure, completed in 2006 by architects müller verdan architekten and builders Atelier G+S. Capacity is limited to 100 spectators, a figure cited in Swiss Handball League match reports.
The main tenant is DHB Rotweiss Thun, a women's handball team in the Swiss Premium League (SPL1). The men's team Wacker Thun also uses the venue occasionally when their regular hall is unavailable. TV Thun, a gymnastics club founded in 1839, hosts rhythmic gymnastics competitions here. The hall hosts tournaments like the 'Thunerseecup'.
The playing surface material is not documented in available sources. There are no records of the venue having former names or being renamed.
The 2006 construction replaced an older facility, but the exact nature of the previous building is unclear.
The hall’s primary use is handball, with occasional gymnastics events. The capacity of 100 is consistent across match reports, suggesting it is a fixed limit rather than a variable.
