Estadio Ramón de Carranza is a football stadium in Cádiz, Spain. The stadium is the home ground of Cádiz CF. The stadium was originally inaugurated 3 September 1955. It has since then been completely rebuilt twice.

History

The stadium was inaugurated 3 September 1955. With a total of 15000 spectators, the stadium built with an oval shape included a 400 metres athletics track between the pitch and the stands. The inaugural match was played against F.C.Barcelona, that ended in a loss of 0–4. With two goals from Villaverde, then Luis Suárez then a final goal from Kubala.

The first rebuilding of the stadium took place in 1984, over the course of 4 months the main stand was demolished and rebuilt and the other stands were redesigned, at the same time the athletics track was removed and the pitch was moved closer to the stands. The rebuilt stadium included a roof over the main stand. The stadium capacity after the first rebuilding was 23 000.

The second rebuilding of the stadium took place between 2003 and 2012 when all four stands were demolished and rebuilt starting with the south stand (Fondo Sur) and the east stand (Preferente) between 2003 and 2005. Then the north stand (Fondo Norte) was rebuilt between 2006 and 2008. The last stand to be rebuilt was the main stand (Tribuna) which is the largest one with 8 281 seats and thus far the only one with a roof, the construction took place between 2009 and 2012.

The new stadium with a total capacity of 25 033 spectators has a total built up area of 94 938 square metres, it includes 31 555 m2 of underground parking for around 900 cars under the four stands, commercial areas located throughout the stadium totaling 23 349 square metres and 28 714 square metres are used for a hotel located in the main stand. The total cost of the rebuilding was 68 million euros, all paid for with public funds.
