The Narodowy Stadium ( German : National Stadium ), or PGE Narodowy since July 2015, is a football stadium in the Polish capital, Warsaw . It was built for the 2012 European Football Championship . The facility replaced the Dziesięciolecia stadium ( German stadium of the 10th anniversary ), which was built from rubble between 1954 and 1955. The sports facility is conveniently located in the Praga district on the bank of the Vistula opposite the center of Warsaw, with good tram and S-Bahn connections. The stadium has a closable tent roof construction, as can also be found in the Frankfurt Commerzbank-Arena and the Arena Națională in Bucharest .
On June 28, 2012, the name was expanded in honor of the Polish football player and coach Kazimierz Górski . In mid-July 2015, a sponsorship agreement was signed with the Polish energy supply company Polska Grupa Energetyczna (PGE) on the naming rights to the national stadium. The sports facility thus bears the name PGE Narodowy . The contract has a term until October 10, 2020 and should contain an amount of two to four million euros per year.
Data
The stadium has a capacity of 58,580 spectators. Construction began in 2009 and the official opening took place on January 29, 2012. In addition to the stadium, a sports hall with 20,000 seats and a swimming stadium with 4,500 seats will be built on the stadium grounds. The general planner of the new stadium is a German-Polish consortium made up of the architectural offices JSK Architekci , Gerkan, Marg and Partner and the engineering office Schlaich Bergermann und Partner .

- If necessary, the roof structure can be retracted completely. It is a partially transparent structure made of fiberglass-reinforced fabric with a Teflon coating. It is resistant to environmental influences such as rain and strong sunlight and can withstand a wet snow cover up to 18 cm thick. The manufacturer is the German company Hightex GmbH.
Construction work
The old stadium was partially dismantled and the pile foundations completed. Six applicants took part in the tender for building construction work. The building construction contract was signed on May 4, 2009 with Alpine -PBG SA and Hydrobudowa Polska SA at a price of PLN 1.25 billion . The cornerstone was ceremoniously laid on October 7, 2009. Then the concreting of the first three floors began. 1000 construction workers were employed on the construction site. When concreting ceiling slabs, empty plastic containers were placed between the reinforcing bars, which helps to reduce the weight of the construction. Ten of the 19 stairwells were concreted in sliding formwork, which significantly accelerated the process. The first 35 m high staircase was completed in just 14 days, i.e. at a speed of 2 to 3 m per day. At the end of April 2010, the stadium's reinforced concrete structure was around 80% complete. On August 24, 2010, all concrete construction work was finally completed.
The assembly of the supporting structure of the façade from 32 m long tubular columns that were delivered from Italy began. In October 2010 the assembly of the steel structure of the outer walls and the reinforced concrete structure of the grandstands was completed. Only the construction of the suspended roof and the finishing works remained. The fixed membrane roof enables a clear view and weather protection for spectators, enables good lighting conditions for the stadium lawn, but also for the requirements of television broadcasting in HDTV. The roof is held in place by a radial cable system and comprises 55,000 m² of PTFE-coated glass fabric. The movable inner roof consists of a flexible, translucent PVC-coated polyester fabric. This 11,000 m² interior roof has to withstand frequent folding, moving and snow loads for games in winter. The “spoke wheel” structure of the roof consists of 72 radial cable ties with a steel weight of 12,000 tons. The fixed membrane roof has 72 main and 72 secondary fields and the 20,000 m² PTFE-coated glass fiber fabric of the facade with stretch panels is made in the Polish national colors white / red.
At the end of May 2011, construction errors in the stairs became known. As a result, the completion was delayed until January 2012. Before the opening, a test international match between Poland and Germany on September 6, 2011 was agreed. This date could not be kept and the game was moved to Gdansk in the PGE Arena Gdańsk .
The stadium was opened on January 29, 2012.
Imtech was awarded the contract for the technologies in the national stadium in 2010. In January 2015, PBG demanded 131 million euros from Imtech for the need for repairs as well as contractual penalties for delays and breaches of safety standards.
