Třebešín Velodrome

Třebešín Velodrome, velodrome in Prague, Czech Republic

Třebešín Velodrome is an open-air concrete cycling track on the highest point of a ridge in the Strašnice district of Prague. Its oval measures 333.33 m in length and 7.8 m in width, with curves banked at 34 degrees and straights banked at 7 degrees. The surface is smoothed concrete, and the track has no roof.

The first concrete track, 412 m long and 6 m wide with 22-degree banked turns, was built in 1941 around Viktoria Žižkov's football pitch and opened on 7 September 1941 before more than ten thousand spectators. It was rebuilt in 1951 to a design by former cyclist Karel Cibula, 381 m long and 7 m wide, with the football pitch removed and a small tunnel added under the stands. Because the slope beneath the north curve kept slipping, the track was demolished again and rebuilt between 1966 and 1971, also to Cibula's design, by Vojenské stavby, Vodní stavby and Metrostav; the grandstand and changing rooms followed in 1976. A major refurbishment of the surface, judges' tower and barriers took place in 1991–1992.

The track hosts the Grand Prix Framar, the second-oldest sprint race in the world, and regular national championship events. It is the home track of the clubs TJ KOVO and SK Tesla Žižkov. The first race here started at 4 p.m. on 7 September 1941 before more than ten thousand spectators.

The open-air track sits on the highest point of the Třebešín ridge in Strašnice, bounded by the streets Nad Třebešínem III, Na Třebešíně and Nad Kapličkou. There is no roof, so racing and training depend on the weather; the surface is polished concrete. A small tunnel runs under the embankment of the stands.

The 1941 track measured 412 metres, not feet, and was built in under four months by the cyclists themselves, with only specialist builders and technicians helping. The oval then ran around the football pitch of FK Viktoria Žižkov, which had moved to Třebešín in 1928.
