<\/p>\n
Club: Pogo\u0144 Szczecin SA | Opening: 1925 | Capacity: 18,027 seats<\/p>\n
First football was played at the site of Stadion Miejski in 1914, but it took until 1925 for the first stands to be built. The stadium could hold about 15,000 spectators at that time.<\/p>\n
Stadion Miejski im. Floriana Krygiera got largely destroyed in the Second World War, but got rebuilt in 1949.<\/p>\n
The stadium hardly changed in the following decades. It was the first stadium in Poland to get converted into an all-seater in 1995.<\/p>\n
Further smaller refurbishments were made in 2009 and 2010.<\/p>\n
In the mid 2010s, plans were presented for the reconstruction of the stadium into a modern arena. Plans were approved in 2019 and in the same year the first stands were demolished to be replaced with new ones, leaving one stand open for spectators. Upon completion, capacity will increase to just over 22,000 seats.<\/p>\n
Stadion Miejski im. Floriana Krygiera is located in the west of Szczecin, just over 3 kilometres from the main railway station and a little less from the old town and city centre.<\/p>\n
The walk from the old town takes about half an hour, but one can also take the tram. Take, for example, tram 7 from Plac Brama Portova. Take it in the direction of Krzekowo and get off at stop Kar\u0142owicza. The journey takes about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n
From the north of the centre tram 5 is a better option. It stops, among others, at Plac Grunwaldzki. Get off at stop Kar\u0142owicza.<\/p>\n
Address: ul Kar\u0142owicza 28, 71-102 Szczecin<\/p>\n
