The Estadio Municipal Ruben Marcos is a football stadium located in the city of Osorno, and is the home stadium of Provincial Osorno.
The stadium has wood stands with roofing over the stands but not over the pitch.
The stadium holds 10,800 people and was built in 1940.
It underwent a major pitch renovation in August 2006, removing the grass, and installing the new artificial-grass pitch. In November of that year was inaugurated and was given its current official name (formerly known as "Parque Schott"). The stadium name honored a former local football legend, who played in Universidad de Chile and Chilean National Team in the 1960s.
