BEZIGRAD STADIUM

Ljubljana, Slovenia

Bežigrad Stadium, also known as the Bežigrad Central Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Ljubljana, Slovenia. It was closed since 2008 until January 2013. Joc Pe?e?nik, a Slovenian multimillionaire, plans to renovate it.

The Bežigrad stadium was built in 1928, for the Catholic youth sport association Orel. It was designed by architect Jože Ple?nik. It takes its name from the district of Bežigrad.

Bežigrad Stadium was used, predominantly, for football matches, and was the home of the football club NK Olimpija Ljubljana (established in 1911), till the club's dissolution in 2004. The newly-established club, with the same name, NK Olimpija Ljubljana, is stationed at the Stožice Stadium, built in 2010, which took over the title of the biggest stadium in Ljubljana and Slovenia.
