Football stadiums are more than just places to watch a match – they are temples of passion, history, and unforgettable moments.

1. Highbury – Arsenal (London, England)

Once known as “The Home of Football,” Highbury was Arsenal’s beloved stadium from 1913 to 2006. With its famous art-deco stands and intimate atmosphere, it was one of the most beautiful grounds in England. The site is now a residential complex, but the memories of Arsenal’s glory days still echo.

2. Vicente Calderón – Atlético Madrid (Madrid, Spain)

For over 50 years, Vicente Calderón stood proudly on the banks of the Manzanares River. It was famous for its electrifying atmosphere and the iconic stand with a motorway running underneath. Demolished in 2020, it made way for a park, but Atlético fans still feel its heartbeat.

3. Stadio delle Alpi – Juventus & Torino (Turin, Italy)

Built for the 1990 World Cup, this massive stadium had one of the worst sightlines in football due to its running track. Despite that, it hosted countless memorable matches until it was demolished in 2009 to make way for Juventus Stadium.

4. White Hart Lane – Tottenham Hotspur (London, England)

White Hart Lane was a fortress for Tottenham, famous for its tight pitch and intense atmosphere. Closed in 2017, it was replaced by the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on the same site, but fans will never forget “The Lane.”

5. Estadio Das Antas – FC Porto (Porto, Portugal)

Home to FC Porto from 1952 to 2004, Das Antas was known for its steep stands and intimidating noise. It was demolished after the opening of Estádio do Dragão for Euro 2004.

6. Parkhead (Old Version) – Celtic (Glasgow, Scotland)

Before its major redevelopment in the 1990s, Celtic Park had an old, classic design with terracing that created an unforgettable matchday vibe. While the modern stadium is impressive, many still miss the raw charm of the original.

7. Maine Road – Manchester City (Manchester, England)

Known as the “Wembley of the North,” Maine Road was Manchester City’s home for 80 years. Famous for its massive Kippax Stand, it was demolished in 2004 after the club moved to the City of Manchester Stadium.

8. Stadio San Paolo (Original Version) – Napoli (Naples, Italy)

9. Estadio Insular – UD Las Palmas (Las Palmas, Spain)

Located in the heart of the city, this small but intense stadium was closed in 2003. It was known for being one of the most difficult places for visiting teams in Spain.

10. Wembley Stadium (Old) – England National Team (London, England)

The original Wembley, with its iconic Twin Towers, was the home of English football from 1923 to 2000. Host of legendary matches like the 1966 World Cup Final, its demolition was emotional for fans across the world.


Which of these stadiums do you miss the most? For many fans, these places weren’t just buildings – they were part of their identity.
