Spain 🇪🇸, Barcelona, Camp Nou Stadium

Camp Nou is the largest stadium in Catalonia, the home stadium of FC Barcelona since its foundation (1957).

Camp Nou is considered the most spacious not only in Spain, but also in Europe, and the second largest sports facility in the world. It accommodates about 100,000 people.

The construction of Camp Nou began on March 28, 1954, as Barcelona's previous stadium, Camp de Les Courts, could not be expanded. In addition, Barcelona's arch-enemy Real Madrid played at the large and comfortable Santiago Bernabeu stadium, which was an additional incentive for the grandiose construction.

Camp Nou means "New Field" and until 2000 it was not the official, but the popular name of the stadium. For 46 years, the stadium was called Estadi del FC Barcelona.
