History
The stadium was built in the post-war years in 1946-1948 and contained 21 thousand spectators. He survived two renovations. The first reconstruction took place in 2008: 3,000 seats were installed in three central sectors (cost 150,000 euros). The second construction began in June 2009 and ended in the same year: sector B, located opposite the entrance to the stadium, was reconstructed (the cost was 120 thousand euros). In October 2009, the stadium received a license from the Bulgarian Football Union , which allows to hold matches of the national championship at all levels.
As of 2011, the stadium had 6 thousand individual plastic seats. In 2011, preparations began for the third reconstruction: it is planned to rebuild two side sectors and increase the number of plastic seats to 12 thousand.
