OLYMPIC STADIUM - reconstruction, adaptation and expansion

Location: Wroclaw, Poland Design: MCS
Client: City of Wroclaw
Capacity: 11 000

The Olympic Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Wroclaw. It was built from 1926 to 1928 as Schlesierkampfbahn (Silesian Arena) according to a design by Richard Konwiarz, when the city of Wroclaw (then Breslau) was still part of Germany. It is used mostly for American football—home of the Panthers Wroclaw and speedway racing, it also serves as the home stadium of Sparta Wroclaw. In 2015-2017 the stadium underwent its largest re construction to date. Monument-listed external walls and eastern tower have been retained, along with the eastern terracing. However, the western side was reconstructed from scratch, bringing fans much closer to the field and racing track. The speedway track is 387 metres (423 yd) in length.
