Estadio Municipal de Butarque, Football stadium in Leganés, Spain.
Estadio Municipal de Butarque is a football stadium in Leganés with a grass pitch and facilities for approximately 11,000 spectators. The playing surface meets professional standards, and the stands provide clear views from all seating areas.
The stadium opened in 1998, replacing an older venue that had served the city previously. It was later expanded to accommodate more visitors when the home team advanced to a higher division.
The stadium takes its name from Leganés's patron saint, Nuestra Señora de Butarque, and references a stream that runs through the city. This naming reflects how the place sits at the intersection of local faith and the surrounding landscape.
The venue is located north of Leganés center and is well connected by public transport. Train services from Madrid run regularly, making it straightforward to reach for visitors.
The venue was originally much smaller and underwent multiple expansions over the years to meet growing demands. These changes reflect how the sport's importance in the city evolved.
