History
The stadium was inaugurated in 1936. In 1948 running track and wooden stands were built around the pitch. These were replaced by two reinforced concrete stands during the 1975 reconstruction, which increased the then bench seating made capacity of the stadium to approximately 40,000. In 2002 individual seats were installed, reducing capacity of the venue to 12,525.References
