After the demolition in 2013, the Národný futbalový štadión (NFŠ) with 22,500 places was built from the end of 2014 to the spring of 2019 . The Štadión Pasienky of Slovan's fiercest rival Inter Bratislava is a few hundred meters to the northeast.

history

Old stadium

From 1919 to 1939 Slovan played in the stadium in the Petržalka district . This was annexed to Germany on October 10, 1938 as a result of the Munich Agreement . So there was a move to the Tehelné pole sports facility . There an international match against Germany took place on August 27, 1939 , which Slovakia won 2-0. In November 1939, Slovan formed a building committee and on December 10, earthwork began to build a new stadium. On September 15, 1940, the stadium was the venue for another international match against Germany, which the guests won 1-0 and which was considered a celebratory stadium opening in the German-speaking daily press. One month later, on October 29, 1940, Slovan's first international game took place in the new stadium against Hertha BSC , which ended 2-2. The stadium construction was finished in 1942 after the running track, additions to the stands and the sanitary facilities had been completed since autumn 1940. The stadium had a 70 meter long grandstand with 1,750 seats and a total capacity of 25,000 spectators.

After 1961 the facility was rebuilt. The audience capacity has been increased to 45,000, artificial lighting has been installed and a new grandstand has been created. Most recently the stadium had a capacity of 30,087 spectators, around 6,000 of which were covered. There was a floodlight system and an LED - display board . After the Všešportový areál, which was demolished in 2011, it was the second largest football stadium in Slovakia with 30,312 seats.

In the 2005/06 season it was also used by FC Artmedia Bratislava for its Champions League matches , as the actual Artmedia stadium did not meet UEFA requirements.

The stadium was to be converted into the new national stadium. This was not realized. There were plans by Slovan to build their own stadium. In November 2010 the leading Slovak newspaper Sme reported with a photo report on the disintegration of the stadium.
