Photographer’s Note

I took this photo at the metro station just close to the new Allianz Arena.

More info about Allianz Arena:

The Allianz Arena is a football stadium in the north of Munich, Germany.

The two professional Munich football clubs FC Bayern München and TSV 1860 München have played their home games at Allianz Arena since the start of the 2005/06 season. Both clubs had previously played their home games at the Munich Olympic Stadium; FC Bayern München since 1972 and TSV 1860 München since the 1990s.

The Allianz group, a large financial services provider, bought the rights to name the arena for 30 years. It was known as FIFA World Cup Stadium Munich during the 2006 World Cup, since FIFA does not allow sponsorship of stadium names that conflict with its own sponsorship deals. Bayern München are also required to cover up the stadium name during UEFA Champions League or UEFA Cup games due to similar restrictions of UEFA. During UEFA-organised games, the stadium is therefore known as Fussball Arena München.

Soon after its construction, Allianz Arena's distinctive shape inspired its occasional nickname, Schlauchboot ("inflatable boat").

Not a bad idea, I have to say. I am not fully convinced, but it is an original way of showing a railways station.
