Hello kman1666-ga,

Thank-you for your question.

The locations of the 12 stadia to be used in the 2006 World Cup can be
found on the following page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_World_Cup_2006#Venues

The German Wikipedia site gives exact locations for all of these
stadia except for Leipzig where I have used the Multimap.com site to
locate the stadium (from the address given in the Wikipedia).

Berlin:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympiastadion_Berlin
52° 30' 53" N, 13° 14' 21" E

Dortmund:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westfalenstadion
51.4505° N 7.4300° E

Frankfurt:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commerzbank-Arena
50º 04' 07" N, 8º 38' 43" E

Gelsenkirchen:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veltins-Arena
51° 33' 15" N, 7° 4' 2" E

Hamburg:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/AOL_Arena
53.5870° N 9.8987 E

Hannover:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/AWD-Arena
52.3597° N 9.7313 E

Kaiserslautern:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritz_Walter_Stadion
49° 26' 03" N 7° 46' 36" E

Cologne (Köln):
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/RheinEnergieStadion
50.936357° N, 6.87251° E

Leipzig:
http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?lat=51.3466&lon=12.3519&scale=5000&icon=x
51:20:48N (51.3466) 12:21:07E (12.3519)

Munich:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allianz_Arena
48° 13' 8" N, 11° 37' 28" E

Nuremburg:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankenstadion
49° 25' 34 N, 11° 07' 33 E

Stuttgart:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion
48° 47' 33" N, 9° 13' 56" E

The longitudes and latitudes may be converted to degree or decimal
notations by using the simple calculator here:

hesitate to ask for clarification.

Download Google Earth, zoom in on Germany and its towns. Search for
the stadiums and zoom in on them. The latitude and longitude is shown
bottom left corner and relates to the cursor.
