Simmeringer Had
The Simmeringer Had (usually also called Had) is the home of the 1. Simmeringer SC Austrian football club in Vienna. The name derives from the Simmeringer Haide, where the Had was originally located in the geographical sense. However, the football field of the 1st Simmering sports club was relocated more often, so that the name Had only has something to do with the location of the football field.
