History
editThe stadium, constructed in the late 1930s, was one of the earliest edifices in Stalowa Wola, boasting a maximum capacity of 12,000. It underwent renovations in 1968 and 2006. Notably, in 1994, it hosted Legia Warsaw during Stal Stalowa Wola's triumphant 1–0 Ekstraklasa victory, drawing a record attendance of 12,000.[3]
Following the installation of seats, the stadium's capacity was reduced to 10,000. By the time the last stands were demolished, the capacity had dwindled to 2,937.[3] The demolition process lasted until 2016, after which the construction of the Subcarpathian Football Center commenced. A small portion of the arch, including the visitor's section, was preserved until the inauguration of the new arena in 2020.[3]
In July 2020, the MOSiR Stadium hosted the Subcarpathian Polish Athletic Association qualifying meeting.[4]
