History

In Uherské Hradiště a football stadium was built in the 1920s. The place in the 1930s, got a wooden stand that has been extended and roofed in the 1950s. Until 1960, the court also received a cinder track and additional concrete stands, a wall with a large clock and a scoreboard.

The old wooden grandstand was demolished in 1978, in its place was built a new grandstand for 1,000 spectators. Two years later there was a Spartakiade on the court.

The flood of March in July 1997 destroyed the playing surface and large parts of the stadium. From September to November 1997, the lawn was reconstructed and installed a soil heating. The rooms inside the stands were rebuilt.

The costs amounted to 250 million crowns, which paid the 1st FC Synot 18 million, the Czech state 102 million and the rest of the city Uherské Hradiště.
